This is an easy beginner's quilt called Fence Post, inspired by The Art of Classic Quiltmaking by Harriet Hargrave and Sharyn Craig. I used a walking foot and orange cotton thread to quilt cross-hatching lines from edge-to-edge. Quilting tips: Low-adhesive blue painter's tape is helpful for marking quilting lines. Simply lay down a 12" piece, stitch to the right edge of the tape, and keep moving it along. After a few lines, you'll be able to eyeball the quilting lines without using the tape. Try it!
