I love everything about Spirit Song. And it is because of your attention to detail - Every. Single. Detail. Absolute perfection - no compromises.

I knew people used rulers to do it, but I had not tried it much.<br /><br />I was wondering about when you said your goal was to do all the ditch work. Does that mean you unroll the quilt to do the rest of the ditch work and then roll it back up again to do filler work?<br /><br />By the way, I honestly love this quilt! The colors yell, "I am happy!"dqhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08186878644626859511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-31169042280773202992020-04-22T12:09:12.805-04:002020-04-22T12:09:12.805-04:00Yes, there’s a 10” ruler as well as the 6”.

Annoyingly enough, my ruler is too short to span the block I'd like to stitch a straight line across. I eyeballed it . . . and was off a bit so they are not quite straight lines! I like and use all the reference lines, as well. I'll see if she offers a longer version of the mini. I didn't find your post to boring at all - not one bit. And the last photo of Sam the sweetest almost 6-month old puppy is just the BEST. He would probably be a great quilting assistant eventually. I am looking forward to hearing more about the quilting on this gorgeous quilt.

I am relatively new to longarm and trying to figure out what battings to use. I always used quilter’s dream cotton and loved it. I sometimes want a little more loft to either show quilting or hide some problems with the top.
