The yellow table runner is finished (well half of the binding remains to be handsewn - but my sewing hand is objecting to any more needlework tonight)...I had problems initially with the quilting and ripped out the first 4 attempts in one section - I finally realized that I did not like the 35wt thread at all! I switched back to a 50wt cotton for the backing and rayon for the top - size 14 Schmetz needle (not quilting) - I used the same fabric for the binding and the backing - neither were used for any sections of the quilt blocks.
I outlined the circular medallions using my pfaff and then switched to my brother1500 for free-motioning all the rest of the quilting - lots of fun to use this machine!
I loved working with the Louisa Smith templates to make the blocks for this table runner - the possibilities are endless for future projects!
