That fabric looks familiar! I met you last week buying fabric at Michael Levine's, remember me? I wish that I had something to show already for my purchases, but I'm not as quick as you are...I just put it away last night. One question, is your design wall a piece of felt against the wall? Does the fabric just stick to it? Seems so obvious, but I never thought of that before! It was fun meeting someone from blogland in person! Rita PS Your freehand quilting is really amazing! Hi!

You've done an excellent job though. However I like the "me" blocks much better, they are just gorgeous! I agree, it is hard! You’ve done an excellent job though.

I have several sets of fabric ready for table runners but can't seem to find the time to get to them with all the other projects, baking and shopping going on. Great job with these!

I can hardly buy fabric that isn't my style, but I'm trying to get better at it cause everyone has different tastes and that's okay! I keep convincing myself about this...

When I have gifts to make that aren't my own taste, I seriously have to make myself sit down and sew. Wierd. But your table runners turned out cute. They look almost identical to the one I made for my mom in law, they must have the same taste! isn’t it hard to work on things when you “have” too?
