My friend Nichole had a sweet baby girl Friday afternoon. Which left me with Hailey. She sure was a sweetie, but not very helpful in the sewing department!
But during some quiet moments, I pulled out that Green quilt. I did manage to get it sandwiched and did most of the straight line quilting. Who knows where this is going, but I'll figure it out when I get there.
I thought some swirly circles would look nice around the dragonfly. I do like. What I don't like? Metallic thread! It keeps breaking on me! But I've started and I need to continue. I think it'll look nice on the wings, if I even get the thread to work!
Any hints?
Patience awaiting advice in Paradise,
Brandie

Very pretty quilting. The thread is really pretty too.
I just love the dragonfly. LOVE IT -!!
Your dragonfly and your quilting are gorgeous!
Oh wow. You never cease to amaze. Have you tried changing your needle? Silly I know, but sometimes it helps because the needles can develop burrs that can cause breakage.
No hints from me, just a lot of bowing to the MASTER on the other side of my screen here!!! You inspire me to get better!
Sweet! Very nice quilting. Sometimes changing your tension a little with help your thread not to keep breaking.
Your dragonfly is fantastic. Love the look of the swirls - I'm going to try that. Sorry have never used metallic thread.
