Delectable Mountains

These three Delectable Mountain table runners were done using Bonnie Hunters method.  So much fun I couldn't stop after the first one!  Although her method is used for making a quilt I decided to try it as a runner.  She uses a light and dark square cut on the diagonal and sew for an HST, then re-cut into strips, rearrange and sew together. The green one on the left is made using all batiks.   The aqua one is batik with a regular white tone on tone cotton fabric.


And the closeup of the freehand quilting designs I used. 
 I just love this feather design from a Patsy Thompson DVD. 

Yes this is the same block but turned differently giving it a bit of Southwest flare.  Now I am wondering what it would look like in a smaller block size and then add a border.  Perhaps there are more runners in my future;)  I have added these to my Etsy shop. 


I hope your Memorial Day weekend was a good one.  We went camping, biking and kayaking.  We went to the same place as last year.  And we saw the same Eagles with a new Eaglet in the nest. 

  These are two different Eagles

Here is the Eaglet.
We were graced with seeing Eagles in different places all three of the days we were there. 

It was warm in the low 90's but it didn't keep us from being outside and it cooled enough at night to have a campfire!  Campfires are really hard to photograph:(
