I finished hand stitching the binding down last night on my table runner! This was made out of a charm pack called Blessings by Brannock and Patek for Moda. I used my Accuquilt Go and my 4″ Finished Triangles in a Square die to cut out all the triangles. It went together so quickly, and then it sat for a few months all pinned and ready to quilt. I think it may have only taken an hour or so to quilt. Why do I do that? Get it ready and then let it sit when I can have it done and use it if I just sat down to quilt it. Oh well, this one is done and ready to be used on the table.
I quilted the scrappy table topper yesterday afternoon, it only took a few hours to complete. I put the binding on, and started doing the hand work last night after I finished the table runner. I am hoping to finish working on that tonight.
Today I’m going to see if I can cut out the pieces I need for the 4 additional blocks for the Guild block exchange quilts. I wanted to make mine a little larger so I’m making 4 blocks for the corners that match. Almost all of the pieces I need can be cut out with my Go so I think maybe I can start sewing them together this afternoon. I know it won’t get quilted before the December meeting, but I really just want to get the top completed before I forget about it! We want to get more people signed up for next year!
Time to get to work on cutting, I’ll be back when I get the table topper finished.
