Yes that is when the CW quilts will be unveiled. I've also read the book Outlander - although it has a different title over here, but I remember something about it haveing a different title in the US. As I recall the main Scots hero is called Jamie Fraser. There are actually several books in the series, but it is several years since I read them.

Well, Rosemary, Ricky's segment is only 13 minutes long.

Is Loch Lomond where the Chinese Whispers quilt will be? Side track...I'm listening to a GREAT book called Outlander, awesome listen, that takes place with a bit of time travel (thanks to Scottish magic) in the 1700's around Inverness. Quilts, kilts, and tapestries, oh my. Had to look at Google maps for a geography lesson.

Thanks! Now to try & find the time to rewatch it, been picking up overtime this week, which has been cutting into my TQS time Still the extra dosh will come in handy for Loch Lomond

Show 303, at the beginning before Laura Wasilowski.

Can anyone remember which show he demonstrated this on? (feeling lazy and thought I would ask... )

Radquilter, I think you will be very pleased with the results. I used Rainbows 40 wt. variegated thread by Superior Threads on my convergence quilt and was thrilled with it. I used a Ricky Tims hand-dyed fabric with a thin border of black and a tone on tone deep purple border. The variegated thread worked beautifully with the bright colors and tied the black and purple fabrics in with the rest of the quilt.

I pooled some variegated thread from Superior threads on the borders and I think I have found my thread. I think the solid black needs some color to blend it with the other fabrics. Thank you Ritzy. I love your quilts.

With my convergence quilt, I think I just stitched in the ditch so it didn't matter.

If you don't want the quilting to show beyond texture, you could also look at solid colors like taupe, grays and olive. These colors tend to blend in well with a lot of other colors, including black. You'll want to pull some thread off of the spool and pool it on top of the quilt to see how it will blend in.
