Another runner quilted.............


It was a lazy day yesterday but I got the second table runner in these fabrics quilted.  This photo is too light, still struggling with cellphone photos for my blog.




I did ditch quilting following a fabric, turning corners every 1.5".  This photo is a little darker than the fabrics really look.





I also finished the binding on the first one and took the photo with both finished table runners since I didn't show a whole view of the Kaffe fabric one yet.

I spent over an hour trying to come up with fabrics for the back of the Kaffe blue pinwheel quilt.  I'll continue looking today.  I want to keep the back all blue if possible since both sides of a throw quilt are visible at the same time when it is in use.

 40s all week if we can believe the predictions.  Back to the lightweight winter jacket.

I just think these runners are beautiful, Wanda;))) the quilting next to the ditch is just perfect--doesn't compete with all the lovely color movements...nice works...
29 here and still snow on the ground...I am still stitching on the inside of my sari circle on Dark Days piece....it'll take a while...
hugs, Julierose

Beautiful runners! 40 is predicted on Thursday and 42 on Friday, but then back in the 30's for us here in NE Ohio.

nice runners. I think it will be warmer here all week and maybe rain and thunder storms if I heard the guy right last night on the news

lWhat a temperature contrast! I like backs to coordinate with the fronts, too.

It may have been a lazy Sunday for you but a beautiful post today. Your table runners bring dazzle on a cold winter day.
