    Irishrose, Your quilt is very pretty! I love the directions of lines that you used in the center of the quilt. It gives it a flow of movement with the center star shape. The colors are very pretty too!

    I may as well post it. A train mystery pattern done totally on my 301.

    Stunning wall hanging. Love the colors and the how the qulting flows with the center piece of fabric.

    I'm still waiting on the day when the quilting is easy! It is a stunning table runner and don't sell your talents short.

    That is IrishRose's wall hanging. Giving credit where credit is due. Wish I could say it was mine.

    Monica,
    Your table runner is beautiful! The colors awesome, the quilting is amazing. You've done very well indeed. Deciding how to quilt something is always the hardest part for me.

    Irishrose,
    I like your quilt, its pretty and done in my favorite color combination. I have made 2 pieced jackets in this combination.
    Sharon

    Gee, Nancy, too bad I have already given it to oldest daughter for her sewing room wall. She likes close quilting so I gave it try just for her. It wasn't my colors so it needed a home. Thank you, everyone. Such fun to see what your older ladies and my middle aged girl can do. The 301 is a '56, so she's a youngster on here.
