Is this truly my third post in 3 days? Maybe I'm back!!
Here is a quilt top I'm machine quilting to give as a gift to a friend who is going to visit on Friday from Colorado. I haven't seen her for a couple years. She's the kind of friend that I just continue a conversation with as if I'd seen her yesterday.
This is my Red Zinger selvage top. Click on the link to see all posts about the Red Zinger.
I came up with a unique design to quilt in the red X's. The same shape appears in all 4 "arms" and they connect in the middle of the X. I used red thread on red fabric, so I have a flashlight shining on it to get a good picture. Hope you can see it!

I like the quilting I've done so far. I used cream thread first and went through and stipple quilted all the selvage blocks, with a big feather in the border selvages. Now I'm going back and doing the above design in all the arms plus a back and forth kinda squared off chain in the inner border in red. I'm pleased with it. Will show a pic of the whole thing when I finish, which I hope will be tomorrow.
Looking great!I'm sure your friend will love it.
