October 2018 to December 2018 Table Runner Swap
#221
Me too Sue. Can't wait for warmer weather. Caroline what will the next one be???....... Maybe floral again that was so pretty. Or maybe exchange names and make something in our partners colors... or maybe something else.LOL. Maybe something to do with our neighborhood.... I live in the country so mine would be that. If you live in New York it could be skyscrapers.etc. Oh there is a puppy movie being advertised on my screen now maybe animals or pets. How about more suggestions for Caroline to help her choose.

I've just finished cleaning up and tidying my sewing room and found, at the back of a cupboard, a pattern and pieces of what looks to have been a stained glass like lawsonmugs did. I have moved it to my UFO box and when I need a challenge I will attempt to do it.

I like all your ideas above lawsonmugs. I was only thinking it would be fun to specifically make a runner for someone. We would have to share a bit of info about ourselves so we wouldnt know whos sending till it arrived. Wuld be fun

I don't know how much work this would be for Caroline. I never ran a swap. Marion, the runner I made was fun. Took quite awhile.It would have been much nicer if I could have seen better.Good luck with yours.

I received my runner today— all the way from Australia! Thank you so much m-Fay! We love it. I put it on our trunk coffee table to take a picture and hubby walked out— stopped & proclaimed...” oh Wow! That is great! I really like it”
so definitly a winner.
And goodies too. I wasn’t expecting that. Thank you for making my first table runner swap such a great first. ( now I just have to hope mine is a success when it reaches its destination.

I love Paper Piecing and was tickled that your ( first) was Paper Piecing. Happy it was a technique you like. Thank you again. I know it’s winter here- and the runner is kind of fall-ish, but I love the splash of color, so might keep it out for a while

Colleen that is very pretty. Looks good on the trunk. Look at all the great extras too. I got one of those machine threaders and can't figure it out. What is in the Kowala bear bag? sorry don't know how to spell it. Beautiful runner.

I'm glad you like it all Colleen. I dont use the threader for threading but it has a hole to hold the needle when removing one or inserting a new one. With my arthritic fingers it is extremely hard to do without the needle holder. And the little koala is just a clip on (to anything)
