The Cows Came Home ( or Anne's 7 Shirt Quilt)

I thought this quilt would take me longer but if was completed in 2 days. Perhaps because it was hot out I preferred my basement studio.
The SID went quite quickly because I was able to stitch "stairs". Long arm machines want to do horizontal and vertical before curves so they track very well. As my basic machine does not have clamps for straight lines, its always a little iffy. When the seams are well pressed there is usually no problems.

This is a large quilt, 95 x 101, very generous and manly.
The medallion in the light blocks worked very well and adds just enough interest. I'm sure my friend will be pleased.
