Finally at 6 p.m. last night I loaded this quilt and started quilting it.
It is my favorite randomly spaced straight lines again. I don't feel a need to quilt every quilt with a different pattern. I rely on my favorites over and over. I think the straight lines are a good choice on a geometric pieced quilt design.
This shot shows the texture.
This is my favorite block.
After I trimmed that quilt I pieced batting for the yellow quilt. I use a 3 step zig zag to sew the 2 pieces together. I had to be sure I had 2 straight edges first and then butted them together and stitched over the seam. A plain zig zag will create a ridge where the 3 step zig zag lays nice and flat.
