I've been busy working on finishing up old projects. I managed to get to the quilt store for the border fabric for my 36 inch wall hanging. I love how it turned out. It will be a while though before it hits the quilting machine - my sister did a ton of work on her house and the sewing room is still a mess. I have to go and get it all together again before I can start working on quilts in there.
This little pin cushion was a test block of a quilt that I've been working on for years. I have to be in the mood to work on paper piecing and the wall hanging quilt has been just sitting in a box. But I saved the first test because I knew it would make a great little something. And it did!
This pin cushion is a kit from Just Another Button Company. I've had the kit for a couple of years but the instructions had an error and I never got around to emailing them for the correction. Well I finally did on Monday and finished this up last night.
And lastly and hard to see what it is, is a table runner I quilted on the quilter two Christmases ago. I need a quick gift for my nephew and niece so I made them each a table runner. I did a test first using metallic thread but it didn't work out that great so I redid theirs using cotton but hung onto the test. And finally bound it. As long as you don't look to closely you can't tell that the thread broke a million times. I've also been stitching on my Etui but no current progress photos and working on finishing up more blocks from blocks of the month quilts. I really have a bunch. :-) And I finally looked in my quilt kits box. Oh boy, do I have the projects to get to. :-)
