A new needle finally made it into my longarm machine after days trying to avoid doing it. I loaded this solids and prints Star quilt and got it quilted. The thread broke 3 times but it is the So Fine which I hadn't had any luck with for a couple months, with it breaking 5 or 6 times while quilting a small quilt. I may try adjusting the position of the needle and see if the next one goes even smoother.
I decided one loop in each square would be an easy way to quilt it.
I used a beige thread so it shows better on this block.
After I finished quilting I cut the binding for Charley in the Forest, sewed it on the quilt and got 85" hand stitched last night. This one will take me at least 3 more days to finish.
