Table Runner updates .

 Updates Pictures. 

 This became fun to work on . was fast and a great back ground filler .

 Using the 4oz wadding really did give this design that puffy look .

 The quilted free motion feathers were given that extra touch by using hyperquilting .

This was the last section to finish off .

Here is the finished project .. measuring 16" x 32" inches .

Happy Quilting .

Feathers and flowers table runner .

Table runner. 

Started this project yesterday , using some cotton sateen coral blue fabric , 

First thing first was to draw out an outline of my design using chalk . . remembering this is only a guide for me to follow.

  Made up the quilt sandwich using ploy / cotton batting , some muslin fabric for the backing.

The threads that im using are Marathon 40wt , bottomline bobbin thread 60wt lint free off white. 

I like to quilt from the bottom up on my designs working towards myself . 

Looking good so far.

Happy Quilting . 

Once the entire design has been quilting i will start on echo quilting and filler designs.

 Ive picked out this fabric , its one that i dyed the other week , ive used some polydown polyester
batting for the sandwich with a plain lavender fabric backing . using 505 spray to keep the whole sandwich together .

 Used some paper stuck together to make the 48inch strip , so that i can draw out my design .

then cutting out the outline , so that i can get a rough idea for placement on  the fabric, then filling in
the separate feather details with a fine chalk pencil .

so far i have used a teal coloured thread for the outline .

updates later .

Happy Quilting .
