Quillow!

I made a quilt out of my favorite scraps from other projects and finally tried stippling...free-motion quilting... for the first time. It is not perfect, but it is a cheery throw-sized quilt that folds up into a pillow. I cut the scallop squares with my Big Shot machine, 5 or 6 at a time, which made the cutting process really fun and fast! Want to make another one...if I can just find the time!
See the meandering stitching? It is a surprisingly hard workout on your arms and shoulders!
