Finishing the race!

A little while ago I posted my Jellyroll 1600 quilt in progress and today I have the finishing pics.

This is the first decent sized quilt that I have decided to free motion quilt. I just decided to do the all over stipple pattern. I had decided that I had done enough practice sandwiches and practice doll quilts that it was time to let loose and go for it! Here's a close-up of the quilting:




I definitely need work on getting those stitches smaller and a few of my curves curvier but I must say that I am pleased with the overall look.

Here is a pic of the whole quilt:
This was a gift for a friend's wedding that I attended this past weekend. I hope they enjoy it as a "get comfy" on the couch type of quilt.
