Curved Quilting Lines

Don't ask me when I started this table runner.  I remember fighting with it.  The printed blocks aren't square.  They are really rectangles and that made for some interesting piecing.  I didn't realize I never finished it until I found it. 




In my quest to use up stuff, I used some white fleece for the batting.  That I won't do again.  The basting spray isn't very effective and I ended up with puckers.  I quilted curved lines.  That I liked and will do some more.  



The back does make me smile.  This is vintage 1970s fabric.  It came from my quilt from college.  A number of years ago, I took apart that quilt and sent the wool out to be recarded.  The top was thrown away.  The backing was in really good shape and I washed it and put it away.  I have used pieces of it for baby quilts and now for this table runner.
