Thank you for your opinions!

Gail, thank you! You and the other ladies here are excellent sewing buddies. I wish we could all spend time together, in one big room, talking and sewing.
I am finished with the top of this table topper. I sandwiched it and began quilting.... but my machine is misbehaving!!! The bottom bobbin thread is visible on the quilt top, and of course that looks terrible. I could see it was happening, but I thought adjusting as I went would be ok, but now I have a good bit to rip out.

Here's where I'm at now. I am completely working things out as I go... as far as colors, size and everything. LOL I hope it finishes up well. That purple is a nice, dark batik. And the backing fabric will fold up and over the edges to become the binding. That backing is a darkish green with metallic gold dots all over it. It's lighter than the dark green marble that the setting triangles are made of.

That frog is CUTE!!! And funny, too. LOL! I don't know the technical term for it, but my machine made the bottom bobbin thread come up and show on top of the quilt, and you can't see the top spool thread at all.... it's not in nice, normal stitches on top. I'm using my regular "invisible" thread on top... it looks just like fishing line. I always use that stuff, and it usually works fine. I'm using the same 100% natural cotton batting as always. Same fabrics. So I don't know why it's misbehaving!!

You probably did, but I'll ask anyhow. Did you clean the bobbin case, etc. down there? Change the needle? Be sure the needle isn't in backwards. Several times I've brought my machine to the shop and found out that it was something as simple as that. Good luck.
