Another one bites the dust! :D
I finished the table runner for MIL yesterday! Yippee! This is to be a
Christmas gift for her (it will stop her from kidnapping my blue/yellow table runner, I hope ), but I wanted it finished in time for Thursday, when I'll be teaching paper piecing to my quilt group. Whew! The photo doesn't show much of the machine quilting on this one; I did feathers in the setting triangles, but the print hides them pretty well. I did angles spirals (I can't think of another way to describe it!) in the white background sections of the blocks and more feathers in the navy sashing around the end blocks. You can see it at http://www.sandymike.net/paperpieced.html#Paper-pieced_table_runner. Now I'm off to work on DGD's Christmas stocking, after I run a few errands. -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas sw.foster1 (at) gmail (dot) com (remove/change the obvious) http://www.sandymike.net |

I magnified the view and was able to see the spiral quilting - perfect
for the design. Is this the first block that you have made from Carol's new book? I still have to commit myself to paper piecing something other than the 'Shambles' wallhanging. I have to ask though: does your MIL have handy access to your website? jennellh On Sep 15, 2:53 pm, Sandy wrote: I finished the table runner for MIL yesterday! Yippee!

jennellh wrote: I magnified the view and was able to see the spiral quilting - perfect for the design. Thanks, Jennell. Is this the first block that you have made from Carol's new book? Yes, though I suspect I'll be making more somewhere along the line. I don't like all of the blocks there, but I do like some of them. They aren't "real" mariner's compasses, but they are pretty. I still have to commit myself to paper piecing something other than the 'Shambles' wallhanging. I have to ask though: does your MIL have handy access to your website? jennellh LOL! Nope! She doesn't own a computer and can't see very well anyway, since she has macular degeneration. My DDs aren't likely to go look at my site, so they won't mention it to her, either. -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas sw.foster1 (at) gmail (dot) com (remove/change the obvious) http://www.sandymike.net |

Kidnapping? Is that what it's called? Every year when we begin our
Christmas shopping list we start with things that have sort of become permanently absent. Yes. Kidnapping probably describes the situation. Polly "maryd" mardor@*net wrote in message ...

Your "safe" with this one..being as how I just finished a table runner for
our table. Nevermind that it's fall themed--it could be stretched a lil beyond. I have veggies for the next set of placemats that I've been working at for mumble years... ran outta steam on it when I first started, worked on it a bit last year and now am to the point of MQ'ing them. I'll get there--maybe by next Feb........cause I have roses ready to MQ for Jan. Butterfly (and I already have a blue/yellow tablecloth) "Sandy" wrote in message ...
