Nancy, I really like your table runner. What size pearle cotton did you use for the quilting? I've never tried it, but I sure like the looks of yours.

Thank you! I used a size 5 perl cotton, DMC brand. It was really hard to pull that thick thread through the cotton batting, but it really makes a statement. I'll probably try size 8 or 12 next time to see how bold it is with the (hopefully) easier stitching.

rehak OFFLINE Posts: 2783 Thank you received: 458	Hi all - My final hand-made gift for this Christmas is a table runner made with my favorite Kaffe Fassett fabrics. It includes some big stitch hand quilting and some dense machine background quilting. If interested, you can read about it here. Thanks!

genevacarroll OFFLINE Posts: 952 Thank you received: 406	Nancy and Terry, As usual I really enjoyed your posts and creativity! Thank you for sharing! Nancy, Love all the knitted items... they are pretty cool. Terry, I covered a piece of plywood with a thicker type of cotton on top. I love it! And, like you, my sweetie made quick work of the stapling! Love that Butterfly you are making.... Happy Christmas everyone! Geneva

NanaPie OFFLINE Posts: 702 Thank you received: 219	Great gifts, Nancy! There is a local knitting shop near me "The Fuzzy Goat". I don't know how to knit at all, but when I go in there with friends that do knit, I can see that I could get bitten by the knitting bug very easily! Many of my quilting friends quilt in the summer and knit during the winter months. Maybe if I can use up my quilting fabric and not buy any more ...................

quilting00 OFFLINE Posts: 596 Thank you received: 89	I shared the ornament exchange results in this post. With a little help from my sweet husband, I recovered my ironing surface. This might not seem like a big deal; but, it took me way too long to get it done! I'm curious as to what fabrics you use to cover your pressing surface so please let me know!

quilting00 OFFLINE Posts: 596 Thank you received: 89	I figured out a plan of what to do with some hexagons that I made in a workshop a number of years ago. I'm calling the project Rue. I'm in the processing of adding some embroidery to the top. I also went to a make and take at the local quilt shop. I had so much fun that I went off script. Tis the season to be stitching what I stitched though! I also enjoyed the diversion!!
