For the last little bit I have been working on trying to get
some of my unfinished projects finished off.
This one is a Christmas table runner I made out of
quilt as you go hexagons. I machined them all together
with a fancy stich on my sewing machine, then just did a
row of stitching where the green backgound meets the inside
hexagon. The biggest thing to do then was to finishe off
all of the ends.
This is one of my Friday Night Quilts from a class I did
about three years ago. I started to hand quilt it at one
stage and decided it would take me too long and so I
would do it on the machine with just straight rows of
stitching down the entire length of the quilt.
I did one row and hated it, so unpicked it and am back
to my original idea of hand quilting straight (hopefully)
lines down the entire length of the quilt.
I am using a lovely red pearle thread to do the quilting,
and it am really pleased with the way it is looking.
It is so much easier with my Pearle Thread holder, that
Rachel's Dad, Snowy, made for me. I have the needle,
Pearle Thread and scissors all right there.
