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!

  12. 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.

    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.
