So beautiful! I love both the variety of stitching and the colors. Very delicate, definitely an heirloom piece!

I have completed 3 projects this year; two were well started, almost done before the end of the year, so I just had to quilt those two and I do not have a picture of either of those, yet; the third, I started and finished yesterday and today on my new machine, I did take a pic. so, here's a pic of the table runner I just completed; it's a kit from Connecting Threads.

That is a beautiful table runner. I love the blue. And I'm impressed that your corners match so well.

Very nice! Tell us about your new machine!

Very nice! Tell us about your new machine!

I upgraded my nearly 50 year old machine that my dad bought my mom in '75 or '76.
I got a Janome mechanical machine, as I'm in the sticks and repair shops are few and far between, I thought another mechanical would be my best option. While all I do is sew quilt tops on it, I still got a heavy duty machine, so if I ever do decide I might repair jeans or jackets, I should be able to.
