Today's a better day and I'm making good progress on Mom's Honeybee. I had comments asking how I was going to quilt it so I thought I'd post a couple pictures.
In the large squares I'm doing a modified designs with lines pattern. Most of the fabrics are too busy to mark anything so I just chalk the registration lines and then quilt the feathers freehand.
The second picture is one of the leaves I decided on after ripping out the sashing quilting yesterday. They look much better.

Lovely quilting. Thanks for showing the leaves. They are clever.
Not sure what you had in there before that this looks like a good choice along with the free form feathers.
Hope the quilting is going better today.
You do good work.
I bet your Mom loves it. I don't know alot about long arm quilting,but I bet the free motion stuff is easier.

Your quilting looks good to me. I wish I had a daughter that would do my quilting! Your mom is lucky.

I love the leaves. I still need to do a lot of practice on my machine quilting!
I love those leaves! Are they freehand? Your quilting is excellent!
Mary, both designs are great! Your feathers are just right in the centers of those blocks.
nice quilting (I don't know what was in the sashing, but I like the leaves), I like the way you can see the applique stitches too - your mom did a nice job!
The quilt is so so beautiful, I just love it! Your quilting is going to make it just perfect. I hope you know how lucky you are to have a longarm! ;)
