    Default Fabric used to raise money for Veteran's Care

    The Pacific Rim Company has made a line of fabric that will help raise money to pay for the 18 month backlog in the care of our Veterans Medical needs on their return home. I was privileged to quilt a table runner used to showcase the fabric at a local quilt shop in Wisconsin, Thimble N Thread. So I tried to make the tablerunner's quilting outrangeous while not outshining the design of the tablerunner and while still using simple stitches, straight, meandering and pebbles.
