I am quilting another Windmill quilt. It is for my sister-in-law. I designed it for her a few years back and me, my sisters, and Mom all worked together in a round robin to put it together. Becky finally got the border on it and asked me to quilt it. It is fun quilting a quilt pattern you have done before because you know how. There is no "deciding" time. You can see from the pictures that I still have much work left to do.
Here it a look at the back.
I also made some more blocks for my Sweet Cherry Orange quilt. I am expecting two more blocks in the mail and then I can decide how big to make it.
I am also adding another row to a quilt my sister created for me called "Periwinkle". Here is a sample of what I have sewn up so far.

I loved reading this post from Adventurous Applique and Quilting. She tested the fluffiness of her gorgeous feathers out on different batting. I would like a little fluffier batting, but I don't use a "roll up" system on my sit down long arm Juki. I baste my quilts and then quilt them. I have to use a batting that "sticks to" my quilt. This prevents sliding and puckers. I may have to try some of the bats she suggested that still stick to the fabric.
The quilting is SPECTACULAR on your Windmills!
