Runners to the finish

Two runners to the finish that is :-)  I can't believe I pieced and quilted these within a couple weeks! For those who are first time visitors to my blog, I tend to go in a piecing mode for a while whipping up quite a few things. And then I go into a quilting and binding mode so it might be quite a while before I show a totally finished product. But, these batik runners kinda got my attention as they were 'brand new to me' patterns I found at Annie's e-patterncentral. they are fast and easy to whip up but impressive when done. Not affliated, just sharing 2 patterns I like :-)


This is Diamond Head







































This is Cobblestones

I quick threw them on the little snowbank in front of the house before it becomes a bigger snowbank today. They forecasted over a foot of snow and blizzard conditions for today and tonight. We'll see if we get what they say. We're Minnesotan's we can handle it, LOL

  5. Great runners! The batiks you used are beautiful. Will these go in your craft sale pile? Enjoy the snow! Ours is almost gone, thank goodness. We Virginians DON'T know how to deal with it! :)

  6. Love your title! Good work on those finishes! And good luck with your blizzard! It has been snowing a bunch here in Reno... And it brought back memories of the olden days of having 3-4 feet of snow on our front lawn in MN!
