I finished quilting a new one on Monday, but can't show any pictures yet because the recipient reads my blog and I don't want her to see the quilt here first. I used Thermore batting in this one and boy, is that stuff thin! I have it laying on the couch and will start sewing on the binding one of these nights while we are watching the Olympics, so I will see then how warm it is. But it was great for tension...no issues at all on this one. I used Superior Brytes. I really love that thread. It has just the right weight and sheen to it and it quilts so nicely.
Since I can't show pictures of the quilt, I will share my pincusion pictures. I hosted a pincushion swap for my Quilting in Indiana yahoo group and made this pincushion (which still hasn't arrived at it's destination across town even though I mailed it a week ago....arrgghh).
And, I received this one in exchange.
It was a really great swap...nice to have a little something to use in the sewing room and no new UFO (that's the best part!).
