Fall into Winter

As usual I am jumping from one season to another and back again!  The first craft show of the season is done.  I know some of you will ask how it was.  While not fabulous it was pretty good, all of my snowman table runners sold at this show.   One of the other items that sold was my Christmas S swirl table runner.  So I came home and whipped up two more. They, along with lots of other items were delivered to another craft show yesterday.  That show starts on Halloween and goes through mid November. 

Oops, when I made these I didn't pay attention to how I laid the two halves together.  Thus, the different curvature of them.  It does not affect their functionality so I left it. 


I've had two cute fat quarters of  brown with modern color leaves for well over a year and just could't decide what to make with them. After seeing the Christmas S swirl runners selling, I decided I should make a fall one.  The brown fat quarters were in the right place at the right time;)

 Isn't it fun with the pop of teal in there.  The brown leaf print has teal leaves although they didn't appear as strong as I would have liked to see after cutting it up. 

I know you have seen my snowman runners many times over, but I have to prove I am getting things done!  Or perhaps it is my way of documenting them for myself:)  These two made their way to the delivery yesterday.
 These are from my Tilting Trees pattern which I used to have on Craftsy.  They let me keep my shop but they deleted all my patterns but one. So I still have Through the Window pattern on bluprint.  But I am looking into opening up a second Etsy shop with only my patterns.

This is also one of my patterns, Three Snow Dudes.  I made two of these, one for the upcoming craft show and one went into Etsy last night.  They were identical and I didn't remember to get a picture of them together.  Oh shoot, I didn't get a photo of my 60 dishcloths I machine knit this last week too!  Yes it was a nose to the grindstone kind of week, crunch time.  Thankfully my sweet hubby helped out by making dinner for us every night this week.  Another busy day today of finishing up two runners and then getting a start on more snowman ones.   Have a fabulous fall weekend!

Tilting Trees Runner

I have been wanting to get more of these guys made up. This is one of my patterns in my Craftsy shop.  This 16" x 40" table runner is very quick to make up.  The quilting is done and then you shape the rounded corners and applique the snowmen and trees on.  Add some snowflake buttons and round black buttons for his eyes and you are ready to bind and enjoy this winter!







 
 I love the striped gray/black/white binding which I had to cut on the bias to go around the curve.





















Since I was quilting yardage it was just as easy to whip up 2 of them at the same time.

Tilting Trees-a new pattern

I have just finished uploading a new pattern to my Craftsy store!  I sure have learned a lot on this designing adventure I am on, with lots more to learn I am sure. But I am having fun doing it and hope you enjoy my newest pattern called Tilting Trees.

A little bit of quilting, a little bit of appliqueing and you have a cute Christmas table runner done. BUT he is not just for Christmas. Why not keep him out for a couple months after Christmas to keep you company during those long winter days. Hey it's OK  even if you live where there is no snow, this little guy won't melt, LOL

I will be linking up to some wonderful linky parties this week-you can find inspiration galore by checking out the party links on my left side bar!


Happy Thanksgiving to all of you that celebrate this holiday!
