Practice Quilt

I feel confident now with my new machine.  I took an old quilt that Dianne had made for me years ago, that had minimal quilting on it.  It was perfect to practice on.  All the space in the quilting area of the Q-20 (it has a 22" throat!!) made the quilting of a real quilt so easy.  NO STUFFING the quilt through a tiny throat!  Pivoting was a cinch, rotating the quilt, easy-peasy!  I will even be able to quilt my giant Gravity quilt with ease on this machine! (I will now sew the 2 halves of that quilt together instead of quilting the 2 halves separately and then joining the backing with hand sewing!  YAY!)

I loved how easy it was to make spirals, and I did ruler work for a simple line in the rails.  I love how quickly I finished the quilting of this quilt, and how beautifully it turned out.
