Finished Object!

sort of.....

I bought this adorable fabric in early October with the intention of making myself a table-runner with the cute trick-o-treaters. Then I got caught up in the whirl of the Fall into Fall Giveaway, making 3 table-runners (this one and two like this) for others out of the scraps, but never making one for myself. I finally finished the top the day before Thanksgiving. (Silly hubby thought the sewing machine and ironing board and fabric craziness had to go away before Thanksgiving guests arrived. Huh??? We could've just had a picnic in the living room, right?)

Here she is, in two photos because she is so long...



I have sworn off quilting on my old, bothersome machine (am looking for a new one), so this top will have to wait until next year to get truly "finished". I'm a little out of season, but catching up. Evidence? The first December decorations went up last night. Wahooooooo!

Have a great day, all!

I LOVE those! That fabric was perfect for that project! I'll have to keep that in mind for next fall....or if I find an end-of-season clearance sale very soon!
