Because it is so unique and so successful as an art piece, it should live as one-of-a-kind. Just as you stretched your abilities with this, so should other quilters also extend themselves to create their own art quilts rather than following a pattern. The eye travels around the color spots with ease, the balance is comfortable, and the contrast is strong, but not overwhelming. Excellent work!

In my Brother Straight Stitch machine I can put perle cotton in my bobbin and make it work for free motion quilting, though I do have to go slow and there is some breaking. I don't know if this would work as well for the programmed decorative stitches, I've never tried it. <br /><br />I think the Aurifil Wool makes pretty quilt finishing touch and does well in the bobbin too. I can get it to work in the top but I"m constantly readjusting tension so I prefer it in the bobbin.
