    I've been very busy this Christmas Season.
    It started with the Christmas tablerunner made for Sue - she has brought me bread every week this year - I followed a magazine pattern - I liked the border treatment so much, that I used it on the next tablerunner.
    This Blue one was made for Greg, my boss who is leaving this week. I worked out the colour placement on a graph pad and am so very happy with how it worked out.
    This afternoon, I played once again with coloured pencils and a graph pad - and designed another Tablerunner using 2 1/2" strips - this one for Andrea, and ran it up on the machine. I have to figure out how to finish off the edges - probably binding, but not sure how to work the zig-zag edges. Has anybody any ideas what to do next to finish it??

    Oh yes... I'm not a quilter - I cross-stitch for an obsession. (If you believe that, then you're more deluded than I am!)
