I originally set out to make a lap quilt because I can do the basting and the quilting myself very easily at that size. The problem is, I think it's going to be too busy unless I do some sort of intervention. Here's the idea of what it's going to look like now:
I am thinking that if I add some sashing between those squares in 1 color (like the snow color I used in the pinwheel) that it would tie the quilt together better and it wouldn't look as busy. What do you think? Any other ideas

Hi Natalie thankyou for the comments and link you left on my blog. I already have the quilting gloves but you will have to let me know how you get on with the washers and the slider, great blog by the way :-)
Thanks for checking out my blog Dana!
By the way, if the gloves are still not enough, a glass of wine or two goes a long way with free motion quilting. Just enough to relax your shoulders and arms!
