This is all so beautiful and so inspiring to watch from afar!Patsy Thompsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13907443.post-28595079316133874672009-11-24T21:38:01.358-06:002009-11-24T21:38:01.358-06:00Hi Laura,

I have a lot of colors in that so I end up using that the most, but I also have threads by several other companies that get used if the color is right, most of them are good quality polyester threads. I like Madeira's polyester threads because they have a nice sheen, don't make a lot of lint and they are strong. I usually put it in the bobbin too. But I also really like bottom line from Superior for the bobbin and I also use it if I want to use a thinner weight thread.<br /><br />I use Organ titanium needles, size 90/14. <br /><br />My quilting stitches vary because I am freemotion quilting everything. But to give you a sense of scale, in the first picture, the tree leaves are about an inch and a half in length.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06858569382699600146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13907443.post-48084384300019538662009-11-24T21:01:55.359-06:002009-11-24T21:01:55.359-06:00Hi Judy,

Also it's hard to tell but about how many stitches per inch are you quilting? You have such great control and I love the rhythm of your quilting:)<br />Laura TLaura Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12017862488946312184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13907443.post-10432743970506013662009-11-24T19:01:56.064-06:002009-11-24T19:01:56.064-06:00This is turning out so great, Judy.
