By golly, I think she's got it!

All of the vertical lines are quilted on Pinka Ballerina. I'm following the seams by 1/4 inch. Half of the horizontal lines are marked and ready to go. I'll have a few hours tonight.

It's by far a show stopper, but this is only my second machine quilted project. I can already tell the lines are getting better. Part of the problem is I didn't match up the seams on the top. Grrr...

I think the machine quilting will be done this week. Next week I will close it up. Ahhh...success!

We stopped by the park tonight after dinner. We went to Stuebens. They have great comfort food.

  2. Do you feel the urge to pet your quilting all the time?? It's looking great!

  3. Thanks ladies! I do love how it feels once you get a group of stitches in. That's when you know it's transforming into a quilt!

    I've learned that I can't go too fast when machine quilting. The stitches turn out weird.
