Remember the Christmas Runner I Made?

Here it is taking center stage on the table I did this morning:

The mini quilt on the chair back is one I made about 20 years ago - back in my pre-paper piecing days.
Those were some tiny pieces to cut out!


If tablescapes interest you, I wrote a bit more about this one on my tablescaping blog. Just click here.

Update:

SewCalGal is hosting a Virtual Christmas Quilt Show. I just linked up to her post and am heading over there to spend a few of my Sunday afternoon hours touring all of the holiday projects. If that sounds like fun, you can do it, too! Just click here. She has presents to give away, too!

I also made a couple of snowman-themed quilts that I drape over the chairs this time of the year.


This is the first quilt I have made that is machine quilted. My sister quilted it on her long arm machine. There is a lot to be said for the speed factor of machine quilting. I was amazed to see how difficult it really is to use on of those machines. It takes an incredible amount of skill to machine quilt.
