Yesterday, after lunch, I started the last needed Christmas gift. I knew it was to be a small holiday themed table runner……but exactly what pattern and fabric?—-no clue! “Quick and simple” was the goal……enter this pattern- It had been shared at one of my quilt groups and I had made a block then. So easy!!!! It comes out perfectly!! Now, to raid my Christmas/Winter stash tote. The result is done!!!!!! Yes!!! I finished it (binding hand sewn down) by supper!!!
I wish you could see the glisten in that Superior Variegated Gold (#025) metallic thread!!!! It adds so much to the simple stitched vine motif. It finished at 14”x29” with that 5” piece of background fabric inserted at the center.
How’s your weekend?? It’s sunny and has a summer feel outside. With gunshots in the air BUT, don’t worry—-this weekend is the opener of deer season!!!! Everyone in orange clothing to be safe!! For those who are not aware, our little spot is 25 acres of farm nestled in 1500 acres of Minnesota State Hardwood Forest which allows for anyone to be hunting (with permit, of course!).
