Tick and Tick!

Two more down! Yahoo, yipee!

Here is my Seasonal Tablerunner all done up and ready to go.


I love the colors that I found for this project and it's going to look so wonderful come Fall on my dining room table. This was a little tricky to figure out how to quilt, but eventually I think it came together. A little smaller scale quilting than I have been doing and just had to tighten everything up a bit. Quite happy with it though - nice to have done.


And here is my next one that is all completed - the one that I really don't like the fabrics in. Although now that it is all done and the flowers are on there, it is growing on me. To test my attachment to a quilt I will sometimes ask myself whether it is a quilt that I want to keep or should I give it away . . . I'm still literally still on the fence with that question!


Look at those happy flowers . . . gotta keep them around for a while yet!


I received a wonderful box full of buttons on Saturday and have slowly been going through it. I've found a couple of really nice big ones that will work great on the front of the basket there - I just need to narrow it down to which button. Thanks Mae for all the little bits and baubles to go through - I'm having a blast!
These two quilt finishes will make it five down on my list of Myra's PhDs (see sidebar) and four more to go.

Two more quilts are waiting in the wings all ready basted and ready to quilt; one more needs backing pieced and then basted and one is still being looked at. June 30th is the deadline . . . and it keeps creeping closer.

Good luck to everyone and keep quiltin'!

Great projects. Love the table runner. Every once in a while I get a quilt that I'm not sure I like while I'm making it, but it grows on me after it's quilted. Hope you find a good home for the flowers.
