I received a package today from Belfrybat and it's fabulous! A beautiful spicy spiral spring flower runner, a F4, 1/2 yard of this gorgeous fabric and a stiletto. Thank you so very much, I love it all. [ATTACH=CONFIG]571370[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]571371[/ATTACH]

Jaba what a beautiful runner you received. So colorful and I love those extra FQ's. Ok I tried to take a better photo of the runner I received yesterday It shows the extra goodies too. I hope it showds the little buttons in the centers of the flowers. Also the little blue circles are buttons to . They look like wild flowers growing on a stalk;). She did such a wonderful job I just wanted you all to it.

Northern Sue 04-11-2017 05:15 PM

Beautiful spring runner!

It's like Christmas at your house jaba. All the flowers in the swirl are wonderful. And the purples are fun too. I love paisley.
peace

peace

My runner partner has not been on here either. Hope she is ok. Plus, I have not received mine either. Maybe her and I were partners and did not even know it (mail to each other from the random drawing of names). We shall see.

lynnie 04-12-2017 04:58 PM

mary, i love your runner, so pretty. can someone do a tute on that little pod? i just love it!

lawsonmugs 04-13-2017 06:34 AM

Hi Lynnie, Kim said it is Sweet Pea Pods by lazy girl. She also said it was easy to make. It is diamond shaped kinda like a deflated football. Really is cute. I think my partner will receive her runner tomorrow.

CarolinePaj 04-13-2017 08:39 AM

Hi Guys,

Just a little reminder.... when you receive your runner can you please thank the person that sent it to you, either here on the thread or with a PM. If you cannot post pictures please let me know and I will ask your partner to post a picture for you!

There are some lovely runners coming in ladies.... you are such a talented bunch!

Hugs

Caroline

The spiral runner made by belfrybat is just gorgeous!

Lawsonmugs, WHO made your runner? It's cute too.

eta: never mind! I backed up a few pages and read that it was made by lovethemgreys.

CarolinePaj 04-13-2017 08:55 AM

Hi Guys,

Pop on over and sign up for the April to June Table Runner Swap! Guess what theme was picked!

Hugs

Caroline

Northern Sue 04-14-2017 06:56 AM

ube quilting 04-14-2017 12:25 PM

Wow, another sweet spring runner. The pie is fun too.

There was nice weather today, perfect for

first fire
[ATTACH=CONFIG]571525[/ATTACH]

and baby tadpoles. The warm and freezing weather damaged most of the frog eggs but we still have a few. This is about a tenth of what we usually have in the pond and I am glad to have them.

Enjoy the warm weather

m-fay 04-14-2017 05:11 PM

Ube I love your photo...looks like a beautiful winters day where I live (take out the trees) and last night was the first in ages that our Frog was making his bonking noise.

Belfrybat 04-15-2017 06:48 AM

Lovely table runner that Lawsonmugs made. Nice and springy.

I am the new proud owner of a fabulous table runner made by M-Fay. The embroidered panel is so detailed and I love the addition of the ladybird. In England, where I'm from, having a ladybird in the house is considered good luck, so I will now permanently have good luck!
Thank you Marion, for such a lovely gift. I will treasure it.

Hmm. For some reason the site won't allow me to post two pics on one thread. Here's a closeup of the center panel. The ladies are crocheted whereas the remainder is hand embroidered. The ladybird is a button. I love all aspects of this runner.

I forgot all the other goodies she sent. A small panel, fabric, brochure about W. Australia, a CD with wildflowers of W. Australia, and a scissor holder/needle case. I've never seen a scissor/ needle case made like this one. Really nifty! Oh, and a little koala bear I've had to rescue from the cat twice!

Belfrybat that is one very pretty runner. I love the crocheting with the embroidery. Reminds me of pillow cases my mama made when I was young. They had the colonial ladies with the pretty crocheted dresses. Cute extras too.

ube quilting 04-17-2017 01:28 PM

m-fay did a wonderful job on this one. The additions are adorable. What a great idea to add the pictures and brochure. I just might have to borrow this idea.

CarolinePaj 04-17-2017 02:56 PM

Hi Guys,

I don't know why when I posted a hyperlink was created.... but here is the correct link to the thread for April to June's swap..

jaba 04-17-2017 04:57 PM

Wow, that is beautiful. Belfry it was made for you for sure!

m-fay 04-18-2017 04:53 AM

I'm so glad it arrived OK and that you like it Belfrybat. I copied the needle case from one I received a couple of years ago from my secret santa. I use it all the time. I'm still waiting....

ube quilting 04-18-2017 10:43 AM

Good things come to those who wait.:D

Northern Sue 04-18-2017 10:45 AM

beautiful runner m-fay!

Belfrybat 04-19-2017 04:29 AM

And to add to the wonderfulness of the runner, all the handiwork was done by M-Fay, including the crocheted ladies. That is a lot of work. I first through she had found a vintage linen and embellished it. But nope -- all done by her. So a double thanks to you, M-Fay.

oh my! oh my! I have just received a gorgeous runner from Caroline! And a bunch of goodies too! I took this picture before I broke open the bag of Easter eggs! Told husband he can't have any 'cause he's diabetic - have to hide them just in case! This patterns is on my "to do" list to try - is it cathedral windows or a version of? I haven't been brave enough to tackle it yet! Thanks so much! [ATTACH=CONFIG]571726[/ATTACH]Beautiful colours that my ipad doesn't capture well!

jaba 04-19-2017 01:56 PM

Oh My! is right. That is gorgeous and in my favorite colors too! What a lucky lady you are!!

m-fay 04-19-2017 03:46 PM

Gorgeous runner sue I haven't done a cathedral one yet either. I'm trying one called spinning wheel in a magazine for the next runner, but I may do more....ideas keep popping in my head......and I'm just so glad you liked the runner belfry bat . It was lovely doing the fancy work on the linen but I was worried the rest might be too plain

ube quilting 04-20-2017 01:27 AM

Another beautiful runner. Perfect fabrics. I like the use of the CWs as the focal point without being the entire piece. A great idea for using them.

Belfrybat 04-20-2017 07:06 AM

Beautiful runner, Caroline. I too love the fact that you scattered the cathedral windows instead of putting one in each block. Really classy.

lawsonmugs 04-20-2017 08:00 AM

Can someone tell us the name of the pattern? That's so pretty.

ube quilting 04-20-2017 08:41 AM

The center curved blocks are called Cathedral Windows so google that and you will see some gorgeous quilts. Caroline did an original layout of her blocks which really stands out on this pretty runner.

lawsonmugs 04-20-2017 03:57 PM

Thanks Ube, I knew it was cathedral windows. I thought maybe it was a layout that was a certain pattern. It's just so pretty.
