I selected an easy pattern, called "Big Wonky Star" from Missouri Star Quilt Company, and 10" precut flannel squares. I chose flannel because it is easy for beginning sewers to handle and is "forgiving" fabric when little errors are made.
The quilt sandwich was spray basted and quilted using the walking foot on the domestic. It was difficult for Tomiko to handle the quilting, so I did most of it. It was quilted in the ditch, diagonally, horizontally, and vertically. In addition, some of the blocks were quilted with a star that Tomiko designed.
Size: 57" x 66" Throw Size
Quilting: On August 11, 2015. Basted using spray basting. It worked very well. I'll use it again. Used variegated 100% cotton thread from Connecting Threads. The colors ranged from orange to green to purple.

Tomiko wanted to make a lunch cloth (napkin) for her school lunches, using the quilting thread and the fancy stitches on my "domestic". The above is the result.
