Leftovers

These two runners are for my Etsy customer. She saw one in my shop but wanted two of them for her end tables. So I made two new ones identical for her. She was happy with that and they are now on their way to her home. The pattern for this is called Leftovers and is from a book by Calico Printworks.


These use up a lot of scraps, but there are always more as you all know!  I just heard about a fabric estate sale 1/2 hr from me this week, should I go? Do I need more, no I do not, but it is hard to pass up a sale! I don't know the prices which I wish I did as that could be the deciding factor.

A new project was started this week...I'll tell you more about it after I get it quilted.

YIPEE- some finishes

Since being home from our 2 week Paducah and Memphis trip I have had my longarm buzzing!!   I had been in such a piecing mode that the 'to be quilted' pile was growing to large.  It was time to feel accomplished with some finishes.


The first are these table runners which I have done before, but, I was trying to use a few different quilting designs in these.


A little Angela Walter influence perhaps:0


Just to show you there really are five different runners!









A little fern like design in the center















I like this fern design better with just straight lines in the colored triangles.




A little too plain in the center, but hopefully someone will like a simpler design.











This one is better, it needed the U turns in the center.












One more finish...remember I showed you the beginnings of a Plus quilt HERE.  Well I worked on it a little here and a little there and it became a top.  This week it became a totally finished quilt!
I just love this quilt, the colors are awesome.  I had gotten a really good deal on this bundle of Gooseberry fat quarters last year and it was just waiting for me to find the perfect pattern for it.     This is Plus and Minus pattern from Quilty Love using the alternate pattern.  This was a very easy block/quilt to make. 

It measures 57" x 70".  You will find this quilt in my Etsy shop right now.  I quilted it with a triple hook swirl in a medium grey thread since it had a light grey background fabric. 


There will be more finishes soon!!
