I did not use a stabilizer, nor a hoop. Just be cognizant of the tension of your stitches.

There is no need for stabilizer in my opinion. Alex told me using a hoop will be sufficient to keep the stitches flat. Think...

Lisa, I love your quilting pattern, did you free motion it, or ruler quilt or is it an edge to edge? I was told by my quilter I couldn't do an edge to edge because of the thickness in the seam joints, bumps, throw the long arm off, so I'd have to do a custom or do it myself, so I'm working to figure out how to quilt it on my domestic.

Aloha Alex and quilters! I finished the Spinning Spools quilt with a variation to the border. I decided to continue the theme of sewing by adding notions to the border. I made a measuring tape out of the green to connect all the pincushions, scissors and rotary cutters. So much fun! I made the border out of the cutouts from the spools. First time I have made a scallop edge and I really like it. The backing is white with white thread and I quilted it myself. Thanks so much Alex for this sew-along, really enjoyed it and learned a lot of new techniques. Looking forward to the next project. Brenda

I completed my Spinning Spools top and it was a joy to make. I hand and machine appliqué the borders! All of the stems and double petals of the flowers are machine appliqué and the rest of the petals, circles and the leaves are all hand appliquéd. The centers of some of the flowers and circles are the leftovers from the center blocks. Thanks Alex for designing this fabulous quilt!

I truly enjoyed working on this pattern. Thanks Alex and team!
i also was inspired by all of you that shared your pics. So when it came time to quilt mine I totally went outside my comfort zone. It began when I found this watering can embroidery design, then it was the fairies (pic not so great), then the dragon! I am not sure if you can see in the pics but wanted them to be mystical and so stitched white on white. But I did do some in bolder colors on the spools. Used fabrics from my stash for this...Mona Smith
