I did use a lot of ruler work and to be honest, I don't like holding those circle and oval templates down. It gives me neck fatigue and sore shoulders. I need to find something to be grippier on the bottoms or forgo rulers. I was very happy with the quilting. The first photo is before washing and the others are after. I always wash my quilts after quilting before giving them away. They get packed in a nice tote bag with a book and card and pocket quilt. This package went out Sunday.

I'm sure the quilt will be much appreciated. It is beautiful.
Completely excellent!!! Love the variety of quilting designs and textures.
How generous and kind you are to give this quilt. I am sure it will give her some much needed joy and comfort. Your quilting is beautiful. Thank you for the before and after washing photos.
Beautiful Linda, I love the texture created by the first wash. What a wonderful gift for this lady to wrap herself up in, hope it gives her comfort.
Beautiful! Love the layout and texture you created. I admire anyone who does ruler work.....have to be coordinated for it.
What a lovely quilt and great quilting. Wish you were closer, so that you could teach me ruler quilting.
It turned out great and will be a wonderful comfort quilt!
It turned out great! Lovely quilting!
LOVE that you did something different in each plain section of the quilt!! I can't imagine what you went through to quilt those diagonals on a longarm, because as a newbie longarmer, I haven't come across anything like that yet.
