I was also thankful that the lines came around the applique straight and I didn't have to "fudge it". I do see that I definitely will need to quilt something in the large red center. The lines are just under 3/4 of an inch apart and I'm still deciding whether I am going to cross them with more lines. Probably just the one direction is enough quilting for this type of batting but is it enough quilting for me...? :0)
I'm still making these blocks in between piecing other things. I laid them out today to see how big they've progressed to. I definitely need more - lots more!
And I can't resist a picture of the pansies still blooming away in a pot on my deck. The flowers are lasting so well this fall - I love it!Happy Quilting!!

Lovely quilting!
The courthouse steps are looking great, they are so scrappy and fun.
The pansy is beautiful, I don't think I've ever seen that color.
Aren't 3 day weekends the best? You have gotten so much lovely quilting done :0) Are the court house step blocks the same size? The vertical ones look skinnier than the horizontal ones do...or is it an illusion?

Quilts seem to take on a whole new life when they are quilted. Yours is stunning!!
Your log cabin blocks are fantastic! What a fun scrappy quilt!!
I love your applique quilt and I always spend a lot of time agonising about how much quilting to do. At the end of the day I really think the quilt talks to you and says when it is enough!! Happy stitching!
Your courthouse log cabin is coming along nicely..very pretty!
Your top quilt is stunning! Looks like you've made great progress on the courthouse log cabin.
Nice quilting. It looks good without the crosshatch, but maybe I'm projecting my lazy-me side! The scrappy on is nice too. How big are the blocks? And I always love the pansy faces looking up at me. This time I also see clown costumes in the dark centers. Versatile little creatures, aren't they!
Oh, your quilting is looking great in the quilt so far. I like it the way it is. I like the work in progress too. I want to make one of those one day.
Sweet pansies. I can't grow them at my house because the deer like to eat them.
What lovely quilts. We had a good show of pansies here in Scotland too.
Your hand quilting is gorgeous - what a treasure that quilt is going to be. Your pansies just make me smile!
Lovely quilts and quilting! I always love your fabric choices. Maybe because you add lots of pink and I love pink!
I love the scrappy Court House Step blocks, and the hand quilting is gorgeous!
I discovered your blog, it is very beautiful all your work, a hug from Venezuela
