Spicy Table Runner


Took the day off Saturday and took a class that the Forget-Me-Knot Quilters Guild sponsored for the Spicy Table Runner.  What a fun class and it was great to get out and do a little fabric therapy. 
 
I think the table runner turned out quite nice.  Will be making a few more of these and will be using the 9 degree ruler and trying a few other new patterns.

Quilt Two

Well just had my birthday.  What a bummer!  I think Einstein should have postulated about how time goes by faster as you get older because it sure seems to be happening!  Got the big grocery shopping trip in Fairbanks taken care of.  Hopefully won't have to do another big shopping trip until spring.  Driving 100 miles with snow and ice on the road in the pitch black isn't much fun.

Finished my second quilt on the longarm.  Used the Circle Lord Swirls board for this one.  Once again it started out jerky, not very smooth and I kept missing the fillers for the circles.

 
But practice makes perfect.  By the end, it was looking much smoother and I was not missing the fillers.
 



Another quilt that isn't pretty but it will still be warm and it will get used.
