Wish I could say it was my "your pick" quilt completed, but it is my
mom's and she did a terrific job! You've already seen a picture of the
top, but the link for the completed quilt is below if you want to take a
look.
I'm very impressed. My mom quilted this 104" quilt on our little
Kenmore using straight line quilting (I was never able to get the
Kenmore to go slow enough to make the tension right for FMQ.). She got
fancy, printing out leaf stencils on EQ, and sewing over the lines on
the paper, turning that huge quilt as needed. I keep teasing my mom
about hiring her to quilt some of mine. For some strange reason, she
just wants to work on her own projects. LOL!
Of course, Charley had to inspect it when she put it on the bed. Walked
all over it, gave it a sniff, began purring, then laid down. It's not
often I'm able to get such a good picture of him.
Best regards,
Michelle in Nevada

Well, my goodness, Michelle. I tried to see the quilt and my AVG version
shrieks: Danger, AVG has detected active threats on this page. Go figure.

Polly, my AVG is screaming at me all morning. I think it may be a new
tactic to convince me to keep that annoying AVG toolbar visible. I
usually close it. I'm thinking of complaining, but then I'm using a
totally free product. What can I complain about?

Oh dear! I swear it came straight from camera then uploaded. But I
have had my antivirus shriek on some websites that should be safe too,
and I wonder if it's the ads. Eke! I'm sorry!
I've uploaded to my old webshots account. Try this:

Unlike Polly, I didn't have my AVG scream at me and I was able to see
it. It's beautiful and from what I can see of the machine quilting,
it looks great!
