Sewing Runner From Pam

I went back through my blog posts this morning and realized that I never blogged about this adorable sewing themed runner that Pam's mom made and Pam gave to me! She made several for Pam to give to friends for Christmas last year. It's just too cute not to show it off on my blog. 

It measures 6 1/2 X 25" and each block is unique. I think these hand quilted scissors are just too much fun and the measuring tape between each block is a detail I would never have thought of.

I love the dimension that this jar of buttons gives the runner. The buttons are all sizes, shapes and colors. It's my favorite block.

The pincushion even has a wool strawberry and leaves attached. No detail was overlooked. 

I have this runner on the coffee table in my quilt room and I love looking at it. Thanks for letting me share it with you.

Happy quilting,

Grammy

A Tablerunner from Anne

When I went to the Charlotte quilt show I spent the night with Anne-not because it's so far away, but because it is so fun to do! :) We always have a great time together and I wish we were even closer and could visit more often.

When we get together we usually have a "little something" for each other. Sometimes it is something we made; other times it is something we found in a store that reminded us of our friendship. I was so tickled this visit when Anne gave me this adorable tablerunner that she made. These were leftover "bricks" from our swap for our soldier cot quilts. I love the way she set hers with the green. Isn't it gorgeous? I LOVE SCRAPPY!!

I have the runner on my kitchen table. It's perfect there and it's a constant reminder of a great friend and a fun visit.
