March Progress Here is a full picture of my Simple Simon that I finished, finished last weekend.



Here is my Floral Irish Chain. I have the center machine quilted. Yes that is a 1" grid and the quilt is a Queen size. I will be spending a few days deciding what to do with those borders. I usually stitch

in the ditch but will be a tad more original than that....but not much!

It looks great, almost op-art in the picture, well done. And well done on the 1 inch grid. I did that once, on a fan quilt single size, having to interrupt every line when I came to a fan, and bury all the ends afterwards. Never ever again.

congrats on the finish. Enjoy quilting the Irish chain borders. Sewing on the binding on taht one should be fun.

Good for you Swooze, that is specatcular, but then I really love the colours you have used in the Irish Chain and that Simple Simon one is also spectacular. I am just starting on the planning of machine quilting circular ripples on my gumleaf quilt. Wish me luck....I am a bit nervous about it.

Stunning quilt - I love the red binding. Somehow very classical.
