Beautiful work take courage to quilt.



Courage to quilt

I'm finally starting to quilt this beauty. 




It is on the Longarm machine and I'm ready to finish this beauty, but I'm nervousness.  It has taken a lot of work and time to get here.  I don't want to ruin it.  


I'm stitching in the ditch.  Also I'm am using warm and natural batting.  I also am using wool batting medium loft to give it so thickness and body.  Never done this before but I was reading a quilt book and they say double the batting showed off the quilting better.  


I'm using superior thread.  (So fine thread)  in white and using regular Cotton  thread on bobbin.  


I'm doing random feathers and pebbles and swirls around the lettering.  



It's a start. Will keep posting the progression of the quilt.  Have a great Christmas.  Jesus is the reason for the season.
