A table runner I piece from scraps shared by my quilting BFF. Title: Wildcat Victories |
Jelly roll strips of 30's prints, this will be a crib quilt for my grandbaby! |
I have plans for the table runner, it was made specifically for the center island in my kitchen. With fall colors on the top for November and then if I flip it for December, it's backed in a green stripe, I can use for Christmas too!!! I was thinking on this piece ;-D All of the hand quilting I did while watching my Kansas State Wildcats win some close and not so close football games. I poked my fingers several times on the OU game, but the Cats prevailed!! I hand stitch a lot during football games it relieves the tension for me. I <3 college football!!
On the crib quilt, I'm not sure yet what I want to do. Should I machine quilt or should I send it to a friend with a long arm machine and have her do the quilting????????
And lastly I'm still plugging away at the house blocks but finding I have very few novelty prints small enough for the window piece, a 5/8" square! What I do have, I'm repeating the item, in the little window more than I'd like. The windows have morphed into a bit of an I-Spy block! I can just see the grandkids some day playing find the ? in the window!! I just love the scrappy look of these little blocks! I guess I'll have to send out an SOS to my quilting BFF and see if she can add some variety to the windows.
