Sew-In Results

I had a great time sewing last night (as always!!). Thanks Heidi and Bobbi!


Finished machine quilting the center of the Fruit Basket applique quilt that I am working on.

You can see the design better from the back.

In the outer border I will do a more formal design. I ordered some thread and I haven't decided if I will wait for it to come in or use what I have.

So far I have decided that this type of quilting looks better with wool batting than cotton, and that the thread really sits on the top of Bali fabric, it looks better with a regular quilting cotton fabric. Also plain fabric would be better to show the design. This is still a learning piece that I am working on - so I am learning!!

Thank-you to everyone who voted for my Spanish Steps quilt here.

Have a great day!!
