    Smile This one I'm keeping for myself

    I did one like this in purple a few years back for dd. This one is done in corals and greens. I just finished quilting it about 1/2 hour ago.

    I used my darning foot to do stipple quilting (free motion). Now that I've figured out how to use the darning foot and not get any puckers, I love it. It's quicker and you can do a large quilt with hardly a problem.

    I love that one - love the blocks! I'm finishing the binding on one for dd right now - it's also in pink and black. When I have it finished I'll post a picture.

    You really are talented, hsm! And to top it off you picked such a pretty color combo too. There's no way I could part with it either. And glad to hear you found a way to make things a little easier for you too!

    Just beautiful!

    Very pretty. I love the colors, but I love the patterns even more.
