Last night, when I got home from work, I got to work on ironing and sorting some things out on my sewing table and then went to play with Lenny and Squiggy! They were both very happy! I loaded a Kids Komfort quilt and quilted meandering loops and was done within an hour and a half. Baby quilts are easy! Here are some pictures of the quilting. This was a quilt that I picked up at the last Guild meeting that someone else pieced. I just did the quiting.
It was also doggie tested.
I also used the Bottom Line thread that I got to test on Squiggy and it works great! I am going to need to pick up some more colors to match more backs that I have. I used a Star Brand brown variegated on the top and only had 3 thread breaks compared to the numerous ones that I had on the Square quilt, although this was also a considerably smaller quilt so it could be that the Star Brand thread just has some weak spots in the spool and that is where it breaks. I'm not sure.
Tonight, I have another Kids Komfort quilt to quilt and a different one to finish piecing the top. I need to practice the loops a little more to get the loops in a more uniform size. I think that I want to do the loops on Kristie's quilt that she sent me. I'll have to see.

You did a great job on the quilt. I'm glad to see that your quilts get doggie-tested like mine do!
Your quilt looks great. I was working on a baby one last night too and I so wanted to do loops, but I was already meandering, so decided I probably shouldn't change it up in the middle.
Such a very kind thing to do--making the Komfort quilts. My hat is off to you!
Great quilt -hope you feel better SOON!
Looks good ,some little child will be thrilled with it .
