A FINISH AND SOME GIFTS


I have just finished a sew a long on Craft Lovers blog and Decided to make my blocks into this table runner. I think it will come to live in one of my daughters homes as its not really me colour scheme.


I am making Xmas placemats ( will show them when I have finished them) for my youngest daughter as it is her turn to host our Xmas lunch this year and I had some fabric left over. I have made so far 18 coasters and I will be giving them to the St John volunteers of TTgully division at their Xmas dinner as I will be attending it with my DH who is a member. I hope they will like my little gift.

Last year the Quilters Guild of SA issued each member who attended the Xmas breakup with a fat quarter and challenged us to create  something with it. I have made a table centre and fussy cut the snowman print and turned them on point so where ever you view it a snowman is watching you. I also added some snowflake stitcheries and I am pleased with the result. Our Xmas breakup for 2011 is this Thursday and it will be interesting to see what other quilters have made.
Bye for now as I still have 14 more placemats to finish. Jude

You have been very busy, and seems like your DD is going to be busy also with all those people who will be eating off your placemats for lunch! Thanks for the sneak peek of your Guild challenge, I cannot imagine how they are going to "show" us all, the stage isnt that big! Happy quilting Sue.
