The critters at DD's home are very relaxed. She sent me pictures of her squirrels having dinner. The menu, Kibbles I think, is sprinkled on the rail of her deck. The squirrels will stretch out flat on their tummies and fill up very comfortably. The pictures just called to me to transfer to photo sheets and make her a pair of sofa pillows. A new spool of invisible thread had just arrived so I gave it a try on the pieced borders. My goodness, that looks good. The pictures are large - almost 8½ x 11 and really needed some quilting. I wondered if I could FM with the invisible thread on the pictures. Only one way to find out so off I went. It's wonderful, just wonderful. I didn't do much - just some leaves and stems to hold the pictures in place a little better. The only problem encountered was that the safety pins used for basting did leave holes that may or may not go away. Easy enough to avoid that on the 2nd pillow. Just thought you'd like to know. Polly
