Let the quilting begin

I've taken the plunge and started on the machine quilting and against all the odds it's actually going quite well. I think the machine quilting course paid off - apart from a slight whoopsy at the beginning (where i made the squiggles waaay too small) everythings gone fairly smoothly. And it's quick too, maybe 4 hours worth of work has resulted in over half the quilt done. I think I may be doing this again - it doesn't quite have the same relaxation factor as hand quilting but it is remarkably theraputic and the hours are wizzing by.
