Thanks Karen!

Best regards, Michelle in Nevada

Thanks Louise! Yes, I think she's proud of it. She said she was even getting to enjoy the machine quilting a bit, that having the different blocks and borders made her stretch her skills. It didn't hurt that the swappers gave her such a bunch of beautiful blocks to work with either.

She stitched in the ditch around your maple leaves--a technique we've both been afraid to try due to having to be soooo accurate--and it really made the leaves pop. :-)

I have AVG 8.5.421 and it really is necessary since I truly need supervision. I went back to see the quilt again and did get to see it. It is just gorgeous. I too am so jealous that you get to share quilting with your mom. Do give her a big hug from all of us motherless children. Polly

Me again Louise. I signed off without saying all I intended. Duh!

Yes, I find taking good pics of Charley very challenging. Glad to know I'm not the only one! He seems to look especially good on that quilt--and I think he knew it! LOL!

Oh, yeah! They definitely know when they're lookin' good!

Yes, quilting with my mom is one of the best things. :-)

Best regards, Michelle > That finished up beautifully. She did do a terrific job.

Yes, I'm really lucky. My mom is my best friend. I'll pass along your compliments and your hugs, Polly.

I commend your mum for all the work getting it quilted, straight line quilting like that takes a lot of dedication and physical hard work to get done! Particularly with such a big quilt on a small machine.

It's a great quilt too :-)

Thanks Anne! Yes, we were laughing about inventing a new Olympic sport: "Quilt Wrestling". :-)

Best regards, Michelle in Nevada

Thanks Roberta! Charley does look rather smug doesn't he? :-)

Best regards, Michelle > What a wonderful quilt and wonderful photo! Charley says don't anybody

Thanks Amy! My mom loves the fall colors too. She's been wanting a fall quilt for a long time.

Best regards, Michelle in Nevada
