    Another lovely finish of this pretty pattern. I took mine to my quilting group for "show and tell" last week and everyone was in awe of it.

    I really like that for Christmas. I can see it with gold stars too.

    if I had enough fabric I would do it with the green and gold and red print. I plan to make a few more of these, in large bed quilt, and 2 more table runners for holidays. This pattern has also given me ideas on using other block patterns and making table runners.

    Thank-you Judy for providing a great mystery quilt train ride. �� I love this and all of your other mysteries.

    I changed the directions a little. I wanted to make a table topper that I could use as a hot pad instead of using tons of little hot pads. I increased the length so it would cover the center of our table from plate to plate. I used a thin batting plus a layer of the insul-bright. I used a Christmas fabric for the back so I can reverse it.

    Well, just a couple months late in really finishing the runner. I had it finished right after the final instructions, but just was not satisfied with the results so let it set for a bit and then decided to 'frog it' and changed the inner border. To me the first one had no definition. It is now finished and I like it lots. Thanks for another fun one, Judy. I hope your wrist is healing well.
