I've JUST loaded a new quilt top on the machine for quilting. This is a quilt "reclamation project" for a friend, on a quilt that her mother made years ago. It was in pretty rough shape, so I took it apart, replaced the torn fabrics, and it's getting new backing and batting. I'll post a picture of it on the machine when I've made a little progress on it, but here's a picture of the completed quilt top.

I'd better show you this one next as you got a sneak preview iÃą the previous pic. It will be a blanket - not taken any measurements yet, but it will be single-bed size - approximately. Tis pic is of it folded in 4, widthwise. Bottom at the right and it will grow up from the left.

Sections one and two are varied combinations of Double Crochet (US terms) and 'boxes' - filet crochet. the dividers are variations of rows of straight DC stitches and rows of 'Kisses'. DC in stitch 2 then in stitch 1, DC in stitch 4 then in stitch 3 and so on. Section 3 is what is called the V stitch. 1DC, 1 chain, 1 DC all in same stich, skip 2, then 1 DC, 1 chain, 1DC in third stitch. Then just repeat to end of row. Subsequent rows place the V-stitch in the chain space of the preceding row.
