Cottage Garden Table Runner

Started in 2017 and still working on it, well to tell the truth, it has been in my UFO pile for the last couple of years. Couldn't figure out why, something I was so excited about, was just sitting there.  Whole I was updating my blog today, I noticed the last photo, me stitching in the hospital, while my husband was there. Knowing the blockage, hopefully, I will be able to get back to it soon.

Here is the lovely table runner I made for a WQ&S Christmas in July exchange. I love it and wish I had the fabrics to make one for me.

Easter 2018 Shelf

Holiday Shelf

A shelf in my lounge room has been designated as the holiday shelf. Through the  year I have collected and been gifted many holiday items. I use this shelf to highlight both the holiday and the love that my family has for each other. Table runner, serviette and coaster (in the box) have all been made by my mum and sisters and I think of them at the the change of every season and thank them very much for their love.

CGT project

Cottage Garden Thread Table Runner

This has been my go to project for the past year. I have done it everywhere, Hawaii, at stitching days,

even while waiting at the hospital.

I will get it done, as it is over half way done. Again as soon as I have a break for a bit.

Winter Shelf Runner

Winter Shelf Runner

Finally finished. Weird story happened. 

It had turned winter and I went to get it from the shelf I kept them upstairs and it wasn't there. I looked all over and didn't find it anywhere. I was then looking through my stack of finished quilt tops that are waiting for quilting and there it was, So as it was just before the 4th of July, I put up that runner, that my lovely sister Missy made me and started to quilt this one. 

As a first go in machine quilting, it isn't to bad. I wanted it thin so I backed it but didn't put any liner in,. I don't think I will do that again. At least a flannel in the middle.

Piecing it together.
