I've owned my quilt shop since 1990, specializing in antique reproduction fabrics. Made my first quilt in 1976 which greatly reduced my sewing of clothing! Would like to find more time to SEW.......maybe when I retire? Am married to a farmer, have 3 children and 4 grandchildren who are the light of my life!!! And now there are 3 great-grandchildren and another due in January 2019!
So long ago….

The Rest of the Tablerunner Story
When you make the Striped Tablerunner, there are four triangles cut that are not used. I cut two more triangles and put them together to make this Table Mat. While this type of project is not typical for me, I was fascinated how the angles matched perfectly with hardly any effort at all!
Cyndi, all of your projects are beautiful. Hope you have a Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty.
