There Will be Puckers

The backing of Daddio's quilt is pretty busy. Like the front, there are lots and lots of seams. 

That makes machine quilting tricky because the potential for puckers is enormous. I decided just to use the walking foot to outline the tumblers. It may be simple but it's still slow going because I have to grab onto both sides of the backing and pull for dear life to make sure they are not bunching up at the same time that I have to guide the quilt under the needle. I wish I had three hands.

So far, so good but there is still along way to go....
