Cosmos in Bloom is finished. I actually finished it several days ago, but waited until I'd washed it to remove the chalk marks before taking a photograph. I'm really pleased with the way it's turned out, especially the quilting. I LOVE my BSR foot, it makes quilting at any speed a doddle, so I was able to draw the pattern on to the quilt and follow it quite easily.
I didn't use my new Mindful Meanderings for this quilt, as the small blocks lent themselves beautifully to individual designs. Instead I used my other new book Free Motion Quilting Made Easy by Eva A Larkin.
There are a few glitches, but on the whole I'm really pleased with the quilting on this little quilt, and enjoyed doing it (Yay!). So let's hope I manage as well on my next quilt which I'll be quilting this week and is a bit larger.

Looks great!! I'll go an check out that book...anything that puts the word "easy" with "quilting" is worth investigating!
This is lovely and your quilting looks very professional! The whole quilt has that lovely aged, tactile, pick it up and hug it look which I really love about quilts! I bet it smells wonderful too- all cottony and new!!
I see you've been playing with the new templates too! They are fun once you figure them out aren't they?!!
Beautiful little quilt, and your quilting is so nice. Love the colors, too.
Amanda, you are really getting the hang of quilting on your new machine. The loops, etc look perfect!
Have a great week.
I just love your finished quilt. The designs you quilted in the light colored blocks are just beautiful. I'm so happy that quilting is getting easier and therefore more fun. The final products are looking fabulous.
Cosmos quilt - perfect for this time of year! Really beautiful quilting and the quilt itself is so pretty. So happy for you that you have such a great machine, and so much creativity to explore with it.
Well done, the quilting looks great, glad you like the BSR foot.
Lovely quilt! Your quilting is great. I need to get back to quilting my own quilts, I just keep piecing tops and have a whole stack that need quilting.
Wow! Amanda, it's gorgeous!!! I love it! I'm glad your machine is proving to be such a good investment. Your new blog look is truly perfect! You are just so creative! I am in awe.
Beautiful quilt, and terrific quilting. I'm using the same book as you, and starting to get into FMQ in earnest.
It looks great and the quilting looks fine to me.
