Quilting has begun!

I've finally taken the plunge and started quilting!  To keep it straightforward I've gone for a basic 2" grid going between the seems of the piecing rather than trying to hit them and follow them.
I've started in the middle and reckon I'm about a quarter or a third of the way through the quilting.
The thread I'm using is YLI variegated kyoto garden, a lovely mix of yellow, green and fresh blue tones.  On the back I'm using a dusky blue shade of gutermann thread which matchs the backing fabric.
Only two more Wednesday classes to go and I'm aiming to have it finished!
