Hi all, just finished the top of a Christmas Table Runner that I am making for my DS and DDIL. They made a special request so they could use it to decorate the table for Christmas. Since I am going to visit them at the end of April I figured I would get started pronto!!
I called it mixed media because I painted the faces. Hope I don't offend any of you traditional quilters but I like how it came out. Sorry the big picture is blurry, I did not notice that the large picture was blurry until I had downloaded it and put my camera away. Just did not have the time to start all over again. The other pictures came out ok.
I still have to do the back and sandwich them together then quilt the rest. I think I am going to do mirror image quilting on the figures then snow flakes on the background.
Hope you all enjoy the pics! :oops: :oops: :oops:

Thanks poco and Fiberartist and Marcia. I made this with my 3 young grandsons in mind. They stay little for such a short time. They are 11, 8 and 5 years old. My best buds too, LOL.
