Beautiful quilt & quilting. When you use different color threads in the top & bobbin does the bobbin thread show through to the top?

If your tension is set correctly you should not see the bottom thread on top or the top thread on the bottom. If you do, then your tension is wrong.

tension was correct on this one!

And thank you to everyone

I really love this quilt.

Love your quilting.

I went to your listing expecting to find a statement saying that someone had stolen your quilt. I must have miss read it.

There is a song by Paul Simon, the refrain for the song is " Momma, dont take my kodachrome away"
since that song was running through my head while making the top, I decided to name it "Someone Took My Kodachrome" as a play on the song.....so you were reading right, just different implication

And for those who dont know, Kodachrome was one of the first color films available for 35mm cameras way back before they had color photos

It was manufactured by Kodak company
