I thought that I bought some purple thread recently to use on this, but if I did it's lost in my cluttered sewing room. Or maybe somewhere else in my house. Who knows? So I dug out some variegated thread that was leftover from a quilting project and used that for the blanket stitching around my Dresden Plates. Maybe it was a happy accident that I lost the other thread, because I really like the result.
The applique is all done on this and maybe over my lunch break today I can go to the LQS and look for some border fabrics . . . because my stash had nothing large enough to use.
Oooh, I like the variegated thread. It was meant to be.
ReplyDeleteI love the variegated thread! It's probably my favorite thread to use when quilting. Purple is likely the only color in my stash I could easily find a border/backing fabric in. I like it a lot.
