March's Table Runner of the Month

Hello everyone. Here is another fun project from the Top it With a Runner book. It is a great project for those large scale prints. I chose one from the new Amy Butler fabrics we just got in and some coordinates for the triangle borders. There are a lot of triangles to put together, so I used the Marti Michell's Corner Trimmer. This handy gadget is used to cut off the points of the triangles so you can sew them together with greater accuracy, and it really works! We are having a class for this project in March - it is our table runner of the month. Hope to see you there--at the Den!

Irish Chain Class

Hello again everyone. Below is a photo of my Single Irish Chain quilt. It is made in a dot from Bleeker street and a Batik from Timeless Treasures. In the open squares there is a quilted shamrock. I really love the way this turned out--Irish with a twist (or a dot). The class for this fun quilt is on February 28 from 10-4 and I hope you will join me for a little "luck of the Irish." See you at the Den.
