Getting ready and a finish

Off and on all week I have been cutting and kitting up projects to take to retreat. I leave on Monday for five days. This retreat is the same one I went to last year in Wisconsin. Here is my stack of what I have ready so far. Several table runners in various stages and one donation quilt. I hope to cut another donation quilt and also throw in a jelly roll and background fabric in case I get through all the other items.


In between prepping for retreat I whipped up two of these table toppers using the maple leaf Accuquilt die. 


Proof that I really did make two, these are the two backings. They finished at 23" square.


Within 15 minutes of listing the first one it sold!  So I quilted up the second one and got it listed this morning.


Hope you all have a great weekend. I think mine will be busy!

  8. Have lots and lots of fun! I know you will. Yippee on selling the Maple Leaf table topper. Where did you get your labels? I'm thinking that maybe we should be adding a label to our finished products that we're selling . . . although why start now?! HAHA. {{Hugs}} a bunch! ~smile~ Roseanne
