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.
Love the crib quilt! I'm guessing the last K-state game must have been much easier on your fingers due to the big lead... Hopefully the game against T-Tech will be the same!!
