I finished the pinwheel table runner top that I started. It needs to be quilted but I want to see if my LQS has the Blush fabric. They did carry some of it once upon a time. I'll just need to hunt for it. If not, I'll find a soft brown to use. This is for my cousin in celebration of her 40th birthday.
Next is part one of my embroidery project for myself. I like it. Hopefully my vision comes through when it's all done.
I did wash some Halloween fabric to make pillowcases for Punkie but I was too lazy to walk down into the basement to get it out of the dryer. Which reminds me... I think it's still down there. LOL!
That's it. Feels good to get something done. Now I'm going to concentrate on getting Punkie's Halloween costume done and the table runner quilted.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Your embroidery looks so pretty! It looks very similar to the embroidery on one of my favorite shirts!
ReplyDeleteWow - that embroidery is striking Jen! Sweet table runner too!
ReplyDeleteCute runner! I saw your heading to NYC next week... from jackies posts about my taking her around... head down 39th and 40th St's between 7th and 8th avenues in the garment district... you can weave in and out of many stores... the will haggle with you if your buying a lot.. but they don't sell less than a yard...
ReplyDeleteMood is on 37th St between 7th and8th also... and of course, city quilter and Purl soho... have fun!
Your table runner looks great Jen and the embroidery piece is really striking. So, what is Amelia going to "be" for Halloween this year?
ReplyDeleteVery cute table runner and love the embroidery! Boy, Halloween costumes used to be such a pressure cooker for me. But when I was done, I loved them. I can't wait to see what you come back with from NYC! You will have a fantastic time, I just know it!

ReplyDeleteI like the colors of the table runner. I have a quilted runner I bought at a craft fair and adore it. Your embroidery looks so good. I think I need to have a Knit In because I just can't seem to get to it.
