I have my sewing machine set up at my work station-er-dining room table and have been working on it in the small bits of time I have. I really should have marked my lines but I decided to do free hand. Most of it looks good but I have some wonky stuff in there. For some, quilting a quilt is a natural talent. I see some beautiful stuff that comes out of a domestic machine. For me, the skill will be hard earned. I see each piece as a time to learn and to improve and thus have to accept that my vision will not always appear on my quilts! I love them still though and I will DEFINITELY keep practicing!
Here are some shots.
Below, for the most part, you can see how I am quilting it. I am making an arc in each of the points and squares. Same goes for the 9 patches. After that is done, I will be adding some lines in the white areas as well. The borders will have arcs and feathers.
I have never been brave enough to try quilting on my sewing machine. Perhaps, I will start with a small project.
