This one was more fun. Quilting panels is easier than basic fmq--I don't have to be creative. :roll: This is the same sun I used on the baby Triple Irish Chains, but I made them bigger.
Good news: I didn't have to rip anything out this time except some decorative stitching I put at intersections to give empty spots more security--and that was only in one spot in the center. It was too restricting. And I didn't sew the back folded with the quilting--I pinned the corners. :wink:
The one lesson learned here is to not use the shelf that comes with the machine to quilt--the quilt would get caught on the corners and make things not so smoothly. :|

The suns were pinned in the center of the black squares..but didn't always get there.
