March Tablerunner

This was the March Tablerunner of the Month and I really like this one! The only thing I wasn't too fond of was in the center block the same fabric as the points and the border are done in, it had 2 squares of that in the middle. Once I got this together I really fell in love with it and the colors. I wish I could get a better color going because it looks like those triangles are black but they are really dark blue. I love the scrappy look and this one had it. Once I get my quilt frame cleared off of holding plastic shoeboxes of pictures brought home from my parents house, I will get this on there and quilt it. I could do it on my regular sewing machine but I want it all laid out so I can see what I am doing better. :) Pluse I need more practice on my Grace frame. :)

Until next time,

Two Table Runners

I decided to splurg one day and join a table runner of the month at Everything Quilts. My first two are now pieced but not quilted. Any ideas on quilting them, please share. :)

This one was for January.


And I'm not sure I like it. Maybe because I'm not crazy about the fabric that they chose for the middle. I do like the borders. LOL This one might go to my mom as these are the colors she is putting in her dining room with roses and all.

This one was for February.



I can definitely say I HATE the fabric they choce for the outside border. It is too muted in color than to go with the bright colors in the blocks. This one I will probably still quilt and save it to give to someone who does like it.

I am hoping the one for March is more spring colors or something I like better. I will say I had fun putting these together as they used the new Triangulation papers which were kind of neat.

Until next time!
