I didn't know what kind of quilting I would do, so I experimented with a couple things, and I have to pick out a little part and finish it. This metallic thread is a little diva and doesn't like coming out of quilts! Anyway, I'm not worried about finishing it any time soon, since we'll be moving in a few weeks.
without a metallic needle and fine thread in the bobbin metallic thread is always a DIVA..or PITA...depends on the day!
LOL, PITA! Love it!

I used Invisafil by Wonderfil in the bobbin, so no trouble there, and I quilted in on the L.A., so maybe that's why. The machine kept screaming at me that there was thread breakage, but there wasn't any breakage. That's why I just got so fed up with it :).
