Quilting as of November 10, 2005: I've finally finished the quilting, and I'm working now on the binding - 2 sides down, 2 to go!!!

I changed my mind on the wave blocks quilting. I am basically quilting in a spiral (which you should be able to see a bit in the photo below). I think this will keep the block from having any non-quilted gap areas, and since I'm matching the thread to the fabric, it shouldn't detract from the design.
