Thanks, Evie... haven't gotten the small stitches down yet, but I've been happy with them. I have to always remind myself, there is NO quilt police, I can do what I want... LOL.

No quilt police, but a lot of quilt admirers!

Wonderful job! Is this handquilted? I couldn't handquilt to save my life. :)

What a beautiful job on the quilting. Even my free hand machine doesn't look that good. I'm with Leetec I don't think I could hand quilt if my life depended on it. Someday I might try a small, small wall hanging and hand quilt it just to say I have done it.

This quilt is fantastic.

Yes, so far I do only handquilting (of course, blocks/piecing of top are machined). Machined the binding with a decorative stitch. Wish I would have gotten a close-up of that.

Beautiful quilt - amazing quilting! The only bed quilt that I have hand quilted took me 6 YEARS!! I'm awed that you did the whole quilt in 3 months!!!!!!!
