    I used to have that ET doll. I wonder whatever happened to it?

    The bed runner looks great, too!

    That is so cute! I've been watching to see what you were going to do and I love what you have done. I was going to suggest that you just meander with your quilting but now that I see how cute the flowers and yo-yo's are, I'm not sure what to suggest. It will be brilliant however you decide to do it. Good for you, you did a great job!

    Looks good. I haven't made a bed runner, but maybe I'll try one.

    What a cute runner! Love the buttons, the fabric you used!
    Please hurry and finish--I can't wait to see it again!! (no pressure!)

AND for those of you that quilt on a regular (read: very non-fancy basic) sewing machine, how would you quilt this if this were your first attempt at FMQ? I'm biting the bullet and trying my hand at this on this bed runner. I figure since it's for myself and not being given away...it's a good place to start. ;-) Oh, and what color binding would you suggest?

    Once this is done, I'm going to just sit awhile on this project so ideas might come to me on the wall hanging and/or head board ideas for the head of t



    bed. As you can see it's bare. I'll put an old picture up in the meantime.
    I love it! Lots of techniques in there? I think you should ask ET how he thinks it should be quilted! LOL






    Thanks for any input you have! Karen
