Tablerunners from scraps

I love working with my scraps. There is nothing better than the hum of the sewing machine and mindless piecing together of scraps to give me a sense of peace and calm. Could a psychiatrist put me into a better sense of well being? I don't think so!! The table runner above sold just a couple days after it arrived at the gallery. I tried to be more subtle in this one, not so "exuberant". After I have used most of the really bright scraps, these are the ones that are left.
This one I kept for myself. It is a little bit of sunshine for me as I walk past it each morning on my way to the kitchen.

  1. You keep doing this to me... how can I get my laundry done if I keep being inspired to quilt and quilt and quilt!

    thanks for making me feel exuberant again today!

  2. I have been working on a wonky quilt similar to the top one. Gotta love the way so many colors can lok great together.

  3. Just love them all. No wonder that top one sold quickly. I love the effect that those jungley black & whites have- a sort of hold-your- breath-expectancy!

  4. Oh, my. I am NOT a quilter. I am NOT a quilter. But the third piece makes me want to be. Beautiful.
