I've outdone myself in taking bad pictures, but yesterday I saw Green Fairy Quilts Pumpkin Table Runner and decided I needed one for my table. I decided I wanted it long, my table is 6 feet, and I got started. Anyone who has read my blog knows that I prefer reversible table toppers and runners, so luckily I had enough Christmas fabric. I worked on it several hours yesterday and then worked on it during the night from about 1am until about 3:15 am. I got up at 5:30 am and finished it about 9:15 am. It is now washed and on the table. When it's time for the Christmas side, it will be on a Parson's table in my kitchen, but for now it's on the dining room table. I flipped over the quilt that I made for a tablecloth and used the plain back, not my first choice in colors, but it is what it is, and it'll be there until the end of November.

Goodness, what long hours you worked on this, and on such a little amount of sleep too. It looks very seasonal, and so practical too being reversible. I have a very few autumnal quilts, but they're all still in the cupboard as they usually hand in the hallway and Christopher has been in the middle of decorating it for months. I think he's beginning to get the hint that it needs to be finished though!
ReplyDeleteWell I would say the sleep loss was worth it! What a cute runner!
