I quilted the new improv log cabin quilt I had finished piecing Sunday. It took a full day of quilting -- not only did I spend a long time quilting different patterns in different sections (which was fun), but I also used a variegated thread called King Tut by Superior that broke, at a conservative estimate, 30 times (which was not fun). No joke. Anyway, I think the results are worth the agony. It even hangs perfectly flat (though obviously it is not perfectly square, even intentionally wonky):
