Machine quilting

This Expanding Stars quilt is quilted with my favorite wavy stitch. It’s basically just straight line quilted using a fancy stitch on my Janome. It’s the easiest quilting ever and always looks good. I like to space my lines no more than 1in apart. I believe these are one inch spaced lines.

The wavy lines are quilted the exact same way as the multi stitch zig zags as shown in this quilting tutorial.
