    b4laur,

    I am sending your table runner off in the mail tomorrow. I hope you like it. I had so much fun making it. This is the first table runner I have ever made - I think these table runners would make wonderful Christmas presents for my family this year.

I put it in the bathroom off the kitchen that she uses while visiting and she enjoyed drying her hands on it tonight.
    Got to love those grand kids. Your has very discriminating taste for quality work. :-) :-) :-)

    I FINALLY found the last fabric I needed for the tablerunner. Do you ever just get stuck because the fabric absolutely must "fit" before you can start? Now I have to sew fast!!! (Can't wait to share and see everyone else's creations.)

    I love how she called them "dragonbutterflies". My son called butterflies "butter-flut-flies" when he was little... I guess because all the books we would read always talked about the fluttering butterflies!! Kids are the Best!

    My tablerunner was put in the mail today for KGoodhand. She should get it in about a week, so stay tuned for pictures - do not want to give the surprise away.

    I received my runner from JanRn. It is so pretty and nice. She also sent a bag of goodies for the pups, some nice potpourri, and some Red Zinger tea from my fav tea company.

    Hope you like her. Thanks so much.
