MAYBE PIECING ISN'T SO BAD

Not too long ago I complained to you about my struggles with piecing this table runner.  I think it only fair that I tell you that it is now complete and really is the piece I'm most proud of.  By careful piecing, thoroughly reading instructions, and being patient, this table runner was square and a dream to quilt.
Above is another section of the table runner.
Adrienne was a sweetie and held up the table runner for me to take a picture.  You can read my previous post about it here.  This table runner is from the book The Trendy Table and you can get it at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  You'll love this book because it it loaded with a multitude of beautiful table runners.  I'm sure you'll find one you have to make.  It made me realize that piecing isn't so bad.

Look at you all ready for Spring with this beauty of a table runner! You've done a wonderful job of it. Your quilting is fantastic. I love the looptaloops design for the flower petals. Looking forward to what table runner you choose to sew next.
