When I was asked if I would like to participate this year I couldn't answer fast enough, YES, of course!! First blog hops are so fun, but add in the Villa Rosa Designs that really ramps it up! Have you ever tried their patterns? They are printed on Rose cards the size of a post card. And at only $2 each you can try a bunch of them. You can also get them as a .pdf too. These are the five patterns we could choose from for this hop. You can purchase them HERE if you like or enter into the drawing for a chance to win, info below.
The Clover table runner is the one I chose to whip up. And when I say whip up I mean it is really a quick make that has a stunning finish. I didn't have access to my long arm right now so I wasn't able to quilt it up, that will happen next month. This measures 17"x 56".
As I mentioned this is very quick since there is very little cutting. While sewing it I used my little clippies to help line up the seams.

I didn't know you started quilting when you were 20! I love your table runner, it makes a nice size doesn't it? And that's a great idea to add a block or two and make a bed runner. Your Ebb Tide is beautiful too.

ReplyDeleteI love your Ebb Tide, I haven’t made that one yet. tizzy5552@yahoo.com

ReplyDeleteYour table runner is so nice - I love the idea of seasonal ones!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful choices for both your projects!!! Great idea to add on for a bed runner!

ReplyDeleteI you have inspired me to make the Clover table runner. Yours is beautiful.
ReplyDeletedfrig@yahoo.com
Love your table runner but I do not use table runners.(table is usually covered with quilting stuff spilled over from the tornado that hit my sewing room) if i had a pretty runner i might clean my sewing room so i didn't clutter the table.

ReplyDeleteLove the Ebb Tide quilt and the runner. The more I see Ebb Tide, the more I want to make it.

That fabric was just beautiful when put together that way. Thanks for considering me in the blog hop. In case my email didn't show up, jason_burnside@hotmail.com

ReplyDeleteLove your Ebb Tide with the blue background. Great idea for charity quilts.
