I'm very new to machine quilting. Terrified and terrible, actually! LOL! I read a thread on basting spray and wanted to try it, so I made a simple runner. I didn't quilt the runner much, but the spray really helped me keep everything together with no puckers! Woo hoo! :D I think I may need 10-15 years more practice, but I'm willing!

You go Chele!! Love the runner..very nice! :)

The spray sure makes it easier doesn't it? :)

It came out really nice Chele... I like it... I also use basting spray on small projects..

Very cheery TR - it does look like fruit salad!! Good Job :thumbup: :thumbup:

Beautiful, love the colors, wonderful job on the piecing binding and quilting. :D :D :D Keep them coming!

thats so pretty you did it. I am sure you will be doing big projects very soon :D

WOOHOO!!! IS RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

if you're a beginner ... i'm already askeered of you!!! i wish my beginner projects had looked so good. heck! i wish some of my current projects looked so good. :lol:

Chele, I love your table runner and the great fabric selection. I made this runner several years ago. Hope I can find it so that I can make it again. You have inspired me and I am going to spray baste on my next project. Thanks for the great tip.

That looks real choice Chele, love all the cheerful summery prints, it does look like fruit salad, great name :thumbup:

It looks fantastic.

Gorgeous, girl!! You know it's way easier with the spray but old habits die hard with me, I still hand or pin baste after I spray. I don't know if it's really necessary, but I still do it.

Your work is wonderful! Branch out, take on a Queen or King size!!! :-)
Hugs,

:) :-) :D :thumbup: LOVE IT Happy Thanksgiving--------

I love it!! The colors are great. Kyia

That's really really nice! Now I wish I had thought of it when I did the placemats. Would have saved me plenty of time on pinning.

Like you, I'm "terrified and terrible" doing the quilting but I'm getting better and find that the new walking foot I got for my machine makes all the difference in the world...I'm now feeling a bit more "comfy" about doing some quilting and I'm not AS WORRIED that I'm going to have a bunch of owees on the back! :lol: Your tablerunner is great.

I haven't been using it so now that my "cage is rattled" I will. Your tablerunner is great...love the name and your work looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
