The family tree is finally quilted, bound and is hanging. This was a really fun project to make with my daughter-in-law. She embroidered all the names, and I quilted it for her.
I had some potential problems with wavy borders since the middle was so tightly quilted, but a bias binding really helped balance that out. You can read more about the process of this project here and here.
I was thinking of leaving the middle part unquilted (above), but I'm so glad I didn't! (below)
