    I've got lots of WIPs going (and strewn around the living/sewing room), but here are a couple completed projects and a new quilt block.

    The patriotic table runner and coffee cozy are Christmas gifts. I've since finished the coffee cozy, but that picture came out blurry. It fits a typical disposable coffee cup perfectly and will be accompanied by a Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks giftcard. The embroidery is in a sage-ish green, matching the inside/back material. Sadly these pictures make the colors look dreary and dull...but hopefully you get the idea.

    And here's a new quilt block. I love the colors! I don't like the pattern on the ivory fabric (and I don't have enough for the whole quilt anyhow) so I'll be buying some solid ivory soon. My FIL will be making me a 3 1/2" plexiglass stencil to make the fussycut center easier. I'm also looking for a good burgundy/wine color fabric that coordinates too, but I think I'm off to a good start. :)

    Pretty table runner! Like the cup cozy too. I like the pattern on the ivory fabric.

    I'm planning on it being a twin sized quilt for a future guest room or little girls room (neither of which do I have at the moment :wink: ). It's destined to be a WIP for a long time.

    Your runner is beautiful! What is the name of your quilt design? I like your choice of colors.

    The pattern for the quilt block is found here: http://quilterscache.com/Q/QuatrefoilsBlock.html

    I first saw it here http://www.quiltingboard.com/posts/list/9912.page and decided to use some fabric I'd gotten a few years ago.
