Like I said in my last post it was a real adventure learning this ruler and it was a little humbling to be forced to go back and do what I should have done in the first place - read the instructions!
Here's a close-up of some of the machine quilting. I love this pattern for a densely quilted back-ground. I think it really suits the paisleys in the fabric. Of course I always think that quilted feathers, and their siblings, look amazing on just about any quilt - so I am a little biased.
What do you think? Too much quilting or just enough for this wall-hanging? I tend to think that you can go as closely quilted as you want with a wall-hanging since it needs to lay flat on the wall and not drape over a person or bed.
Ok Ok have I made you wait long enough?? We have a winner for the Accuquilt Baby Go! fabric cutter! What I did was separate out all the valid entries/comment from the invalid ones. I really didn't want to have to re-draw the name so I did it this way. Invalid comments were either no-reply accounts or people that did not leave me an e-mail address. If you left me an e-mail address you got entered - don't worry. Out of all the comments left we had 411 valid comments and therefore valid entries. I checked and double-checked all the entries. If you're wondering if yours was valid - if you heard back from me via e-mail it was valid! I used the random number generator at http://www.random.org
Drum-Roll Please!!!
The Winner is valid entry 330
