Lately I have been machine quilting parallel lines. I do wish I could become more proficient and learn to free motion. I have tried it and maybe all I need to do is practice. I don't want the quilting to dominate the design but highlight.
I am not showing all of this quilt because it is a gift. I need to do the binding and this will be finished. I love the design and I hope the person that is getting it will too!!
A bit of good news. My daughter in law is on her way home from London! We will all be relieved when she gets home.

I really love the quirky off squareness of your quilt! I do the horizontal machine lines too. I've practiced the free-motion quilting, but once I put the project at the machine, I freeze up with fear. xo,
Love the colourful car quilt; it's so happy!
Loving your quilt top! The colours are just fab - so bright and cheery.
Glad to hear your daughter-in-law is on her way home. It's incredible how something so far away can cause so much chaos!
The vehicles are nicely liberated.
those little cars are so cute, what a fun quilt
This quilt came out great! Bright and happy. Great job!
That free-motion does take practice. I'm not good at it yet...it's hard to loosen up enough to flow well. I always have a practice piece to loosen up on before I start on the "real" quilt!
