sdaurio Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 My quilting has been hit or miss lately. Rather than try to make a quilt, I found this vintage table cloth and went to town. I miss spending time with my Millie! I do have to say that I love having quilts on the table. Now I need to find a Christmas poinsettia table cloth! I had no plan for this one other than, I needed to quilt some feathers, I knew it need checkerboard cross hatching and I just needed to do some crazy quilting!!! Just makes me want to do more! I put it on the frame and just got started. Used a little thread in the process. One layer of hobbs 80/20 batting, glide thread on top magna glide in the bobbin. Hand guided with a little ruler work.

Pepsi Girl Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Wow I really like it. So with it quilted up does it still work as a tablecloth or do you take it off so the glasses don't fall over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
