Yesterday's post was about getting the pieces together to begin the quilting process. So today, I took it to the machine and began the quilting process. I do my "actual quilting" on my 1984 990 Viking. My husband refers to it as "Big Bertha". It is truely a workhorse, and hasn't ever been in for any kind of service including any cleaning.
I am planning on doing some straight line quilting in a plaid grid pattern. Here is a picture of the quilt in the machine.
My goal this year is to complete an old UFO project for every new project I want to buy or start.
I agree, the older machines can handle heavy duty sewing much better. I love the look of the fabric! Good luck on getting your UFO's done!
