Committed Now

It must be our lizard brain that makes us think that machine quilting is easier than hand quilting. Of course I started out with some foolish metallic white thread that the Janome just hates so the backside of this quilt is going to have to be covered up like so many turds in a sandbox. Once I switched to rayon thread, Big J settled in and stopped fighting my moves. Now I feel like I am building a huge cheese and it's going to take a while.

It is looking good. I have never had luck with metallic thread in either my Husqvarna or Pfaff so maybe it's not your Janome.

ah, yes, the quilting is looking very organic!
