Here's my latest table runner. Can't say I am particularly crazy about it but I do like the quilting design that shows on the back. I lingered too long on the centers so the next runner, one block longer, is better and doesn't have the thick build up of threads. The quilting is still a learning experience. I have a number of quilts coming up with churn dash blocks so finally I have my design down before the needle hits the quilt.

pegsterct OFFLINE Posts: 72	A comfort quilt made with fabric from my guild -- it was from a sales sample of fabric and also donated fabric. The guild gives you the fabric and the directions. The back is also so cool -- cute scene of train, road, river -- I quilted along the lines of the road and river. Easy, peasey and cute. These quilts are donated to local charities. Peggy

...about the BSR updates...I just took my machine in for it's routine cleaning and such, and asked them to upgrade my BSR (because I recently read the thread about this). I was told there have been no updates in 4 years. My machine is a 5 year old 440QE and I have never brought my BSR in with my machine. So,I'll find out what they do. Like many who posted about this I do not use my BSR...and that was why I bought the 440. Oh! By the way...when you bring your machine in for it's cleaning, remember to switch out the single hole stitch plate and the 1/4" foot...opps

Well, I'm going to by a single hole plate, when I go there, but I know what happens, when you forget it. I did that on both my Janome and my Pfaff. It doesn't sound very good

WDWfan OFFLINE Posts: 1	the only thing I have finished this month is a cover for my Kindle. I took the class yesterday. I hope to get some smaller quilts done so I can send them to my daughter in Hawaii. She gives them to the NICU unit at Tripler Army Medical Center. My mother also nits hats which go to the preemies also. Kathy from NY
