Your bed runner is beautiful. The decorative touches in the room certainly indicate your love of sewing and related things. It would be nice for you to quilt it yourself. Hobbs 80/20 batting is nice to work with but you might consider silk batting. I have used it a few times and really like the way it drapes and 'works with you' as you quilt. I would recommend using stencils to put your design on your quilt. There is lots of youtube information for them. My favorite method is to draw the design on vellum type paper (I buy it in 20 yard by 12 inch rolls at Officemax) pin it to your quilt and stitch on the lines. There is a very wide choice of design elements in stencils. They are available at quilt stores and on line. Good luck and keep up the great work!
