My Quilting Supervisor...and Quilting...

 She is still here and keeping her eye on me in all I do in the sewing area. Here, she is making sure my batting piecing comes along well with my joining foot. :) 

She didn't supervise my Pfaff when I was quilting the table runner...I suppose she trusts the Pfaff after all these years - the Pfaff will do a great job. :)  I insulate my windows on the sill every year with the leavings after trimming a quilt. In the sewing room. That really cuts the draft plus uses the leftovers wisely. ;) It is the trimming from all three quilt layers. The batting really cuts any drafts. Not going to look good in my House Beautiful layout I suppose though....HAHAHAHHA.....

Table Runner...Asian fabrics

 Asian fabrics table runner....the back is striking and is the dark red print shown above. Used Metrosene and Superior TWIST to quilt. TWIST began to separate when I was about two thirds done, so I switched to the same basic color in Metrosene, but of course Metrosene is not shiny and silky looking, but it worked.  Warm and White batting pieced with some Warm and Natural.  Bobbin was Superior Threads Bottom Line.

The family likes the back better than the front so that is what is upwards this time around. :) The pictures are difficult because of the 60" length of the piece, and the butterfly print just does not photograph well. In person it is very lovely and so is the turquoise with gold high lights.
