And I'm not an elephant. I forgot to take some pictures of the details of Abby's quilt. And, I forgot to write a post yesterday.
So, I'll make up for it today. Here's the pictures of Abby's quilt:
And here are some close-ups of the stitches (and yes it was my first quilt done on a machine, so I'm really embarrassing myself here, don't look too close).

Clouds on the blue cloth above the flowers |
 |
Stripes stitching to help it look more like grass. |
 |
Tulip detail on the yellow and pink. (I cheated and used my embroidery machine to do these. I just used the same pattern that I used on the flowers but only the straight stitch parts.) |
Just another layer to really personalize the quilt.

Do you need a special machine for that? I have trouble visualizing with my machine how to do that- all that fabric when doing stuff in the middle.
No, I don't have a special machine. You can use your regular sewing machine. A lot of quilters do. I'll have to make a video, or find a video and post it.
All the cloth does cause problems, but there are techniques and hints for dealing with it.
