Quilting the wonky star

I don't know why I took a picture of'
the back of this quilt.  I could have pressed these
seams down better.  I kept reading about
quilters pressing seams open to make them
easier to machine quilt, so I gave it a try.  Probably
won't try it, again.


I spray basted this, and also did some pinning.
The pins kind of reminded me of ants going to a picnic.




Let the fun begin.


I'm planning to quilt diagonally in both directions.


I think this is going to take a while. 
I can get several lines of quilting done in an evening.


Only about 699,700 more to go.  But
whose counting?

So this will be doubling as a
sewing machine cover for a little
while.



Fortunately,
I have other machines so I can work
on other projects without disturbing my quilting set-up.

I'm gonna start a new diet today and I have a new
Pilates video.  I'm gonna have breakfast and then I'll watch the DVD
whilst I'm sewing. 

You will not recognize me the next time you see me.
