Emily's sweet little beauty

Been quilting this with a paisley design. I'll do a feathered border when I get to it.



I do all this on a domestic sewing machine. I love my machine, but I do wish there was a little more space so I had to wrangle less. How I wish I had a long arm machine.
Love this quilt. The quilting is turning out beautifully despite the black thread being so hard to see.

  2. I love the quilting part too. You might want to try one of the old vintage machines--most have a lot more "harp" room.
    I like your paisleys and am looking forward to seeing the feathers.

  3. What kind of machine are you on? (I'm hunting for one and looking for opinions.)

    1. It's just a 15 year old Janome Memorycraft. Pretty much any machine will do provided there's a bit of throat space.
