Quilted Jonquil

And her name is……SOPHIE.   Sophie is my new, used Nolting quilting machine.  She is wonderful. She is brilliant.  She doesn’t break thread, she doesn’t go out of time at the drop of a pin, she starts stitching when I move, she stops stitching when I stop, she has a wonderful single stitch button AND her needle stops in the up position when you stop stitching.  Here’s what Sophie did this weekend……

I’ve been wanting to do this wavy quilting on a strippy runner for a while now.  Guess you’ll have to click the picture to see the quilting.  I really like it.  I also used Aurafil thread after seeing it recommended on so many blogs.  It is so nice to work with and doesn’t have nearly as much lint.  And Sophie likes it

I like this table runner but I’m pretty sure the other folks at the wedding shower will have that look on their faces.  You know the one where you are thinking, “Why in the world would she give a Halloween table runner for a wedding shower gift?”  Because the wedding is in October and I want too!
