    Everyone comes up wit some wonderful quilting ideas. Love both of them. Do you mind if I copy your eagle wall hanging. Just love eagles. Don't know if I am brave enough to use denim. Made a denim quilt and dog paws bag for my daughter and had the same problem with the needle.

    Please feel free to copy the eagle , it was made with 5 1/2 finished HST and a plain red in the middle.

    LOVE your denim work too!

    A great interpretation of denim and farmer's handkerchieves!
    I'm not sure what you mean by the needle popping out. Were you using an denim (sharp) needle size 100 or 110? The bigger, sharp needle punches right through the durable denim.

    I was not sure about that either. It does take a heavy weight of machine and big needles to work with multitple layers of denim.

    Thank you!
    Actually I was using a singer denim needle on a bernina. I had to go real slow or the needle would pull out and stay in the fabric. Until I slowed down. No Bernina dealer here, but I think I better stock up on other types of needles either on line or next time I go to a Bernina place.
