The question raised by Miz Polly reminded me that I still had an unfinished table runner (waiting for binding) in one of the piles! I've posted photos of it because it is an example of echo quilting. The other poinsettia table runners that I had made the same year (at least 8yrs ago) were stipple quilted. Gary's quilt is a finished item but I also echo quilted it around all the duck appliques - this was made as a Xmas gift in 1997. I couldn't resist posting a couple of Winston & friends photos - just because! In the table runner/topper album are photos of a set of placemats that I recently finished. I had asked a friend to pick up some fabric that was available at an lqs near to her home - long story short: she saw more fabric that she like herself and asked me to turn it into placemats - she'd wanted plain ones using the fruit/green/blue fabrics. I did that and then decided that the fruits should be in a basket - so the 'other' side of placemat was designed! The first set of placemats that I had made for (20yrs ago) have just worn out so she was ready for a new kitchen set - and I'm sure that I had told her not to wash them!! ;) jennellh
