I think this is nice shot of how the quilting looks at each intersection
Can you pick out how the quilt is "puddled" around my work area - to the right and left as well as in front of me (the fuzzy part)? It's important to have a puddle so that there is somewhere for the fabric to easily move to while you manuever the quilt. If it's all laying flat on the table there is too much resistance and it takes more effort on your part to keep the quilt moving smoothly, especially important if you are free motion quilting.
This was actually what I saw as I was getting up to go get ready for work this morning - I had flipped the quilt up so I could close the drawers and get out of my chair. I like how it shows the RWB backing but it also shows the intersecting rows of quilting.

Looking good! I'm learning a lot from your posts about machine quilting. Thanks. You obviously know what you are doing.
Sarah, this looks GREAT! I really like that last shot, too. You've done a wonderful job. I hope you have a quiet night so you can get some REST! :)
I always enjoy seeing photos of quilting set ups and "action" shots...it looks great! It's hot for machine quilting and binding...hope you have air conditioning!
