    Tate, I love the 'male' quilt and your avatar is really original too!

    AnnieRose, my 301, popped out another Spicy Spiral. It is a rusty cranberry, not pink. I wish I knew where the problem is with that - is it in my camera or photo program? The recipient was tracing the the FMQ - asking if I really did that. Yes, but not alone - that little machine has a lot to do with it.

    Irishrose, I love the colors that you picked for this lovely table runner.

    I've never been crazy about the spiral tablerunners, but I LOVE this one!! Does it need a home?

    No, it went south hours after it was finished. My second daughter's house has an open floor plan with a burgandy LR and taupe DR, so that dictated my colors. I am doing a very similar one for a Cystic Fibrosis silent auction early next month. It seems there are a lot of dark red DRs, so hopefully, it will sell.

    Beautiful! Isn't it nice when the recipient appreciates it? The colors are my favorite family--anything in the reds.

    Of course it will sell! And I'm betting it fetches a NICE price!
