cottons. the blocks were part of a block exchange with 7 other ladies.

All the beautiful blocks I got in exchange for the ones I made. Wanting to try machine quilting.

How pretty the quilt turned out. When you are up close you see every wobble but the end result is very satisfying.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Jump right in. I didn't even practice much. My first free-motion was the dual wavy lines in the narrow border the was demonstrated in the class.
