    Good Girl Linny.. lovely to have you aboard again.

    Come on guys, some of you must want to sign up to our pincushion swap too! There is still plenty of time to run up a pincushion!

    Hugs

    Well I finished my runner a couple days ago. I had computer troubles and couldn't get online to post a sneek peek until now, Hope someone enjoys it. I was trying to get it done before the holidays start popping up. It has some FMQing on it. I'm just learning it and not that good yet. It doesn't show to well so I guess it might pass. I love seeing the quilting on runners and quilts etc. I folded the back over the front to give a little peek at it. Gotta PM Caroline before I forget. Everyone have a Great Thanksgiving.

    Thanks Linny. The blue and the white have a silver snowflake on them. I don't know if it shows that way. They are also Batiks. The folded over corner is a snowman print on the back. Hope we see some more sneak peeks soon.

    The silver snowflakes definitely show up and give it that wintry feel. Mine is finished except for binding stitching. It has houses and instead of putting fabric trees between the houses, I quilted them in. Kind of different, hope it doesn't look too weird. Will try and post a picture soon. look forward to seeing pics in the coming weeks.

    This is one I finished up today. I like making runners they are a great size to do practice fmq ing on. I see your trees that's such a cute runner. Very wintery. I need a lot more practice on my fmq ing. I got some of the rulers to learn how to make feathers and such. I think it will be years before I'm ready for them. lol. Have a good evening.

    Linny did you do your trees by hand or machine?

    lol well this is where everyone is! Forgot we would be switching to a new page! I am going to be away over Christmas/New Years, so if I can get my runner done before leaving, I'll be in. I'm optimistic! But I have absolutely no idea what to do this time? I have to decide soon! lol

    Mary, your snowman and house runner is just precious. Good for you jumping in to do fmq. It's in my future but for now just use the mark b gone marker.

    The trees are machine stitched. After looking at your houses I realized I didn't hand stitch the mullions in the windows will need to do that. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
