Here's the tablecloth I've made for my mother-in-law. I delivered it this morning and she was very pleased with it, and put it on her table straight away. The photo's don't do it justice. The table is in a small bay, and catches the light, brightening the room.
Detail of the quilting.
The cloth is 54" square, six by six blocks of 9" log cabin. Just thought - I haven't got a photo of the backing material, it matched perfectly, small lilac flowers on a yellow background. I used the backing fabric to bind aswell. The quilitng we kept fairly simple, sitched in the ditch between the main blocks, and then using varigated thread, straight stitching horizontal and vertical over the logs. The centre squares we left unquilted.
I've just pinned out another quilt, which I want to quilt and bind by Wednesday.
