The table runner in my header was a fun, primitive style block that I made last year. I machine appliqued on old sugar sacks and purposely didn't quilt it. I figured I could always go back and do that later if I changed my mind. I really like the simplicity of it.
My patriotic Santa greets visitors as they enter my front door. I wish I could remember the designer. I do know that I love their patterns and the directions are great! (Joined at the Hip- thanks Carol!)
Things will be a bit slow on my blog for awhile. Making binding and basting quilts isn't the most exciting thing to talk about. I am hoping to get two quilts machine quilted before Christmas and that means I'll have to stay focused!!!
Enjoyed show and share today. I too need to stay focused!
ReplyDeleteThat is good advice for all of us! There is so much to do...I love your Santa quilt.
ReplyDeleteWonderful eye-candy, Lori. I love the simplicity of your tablerunner. Santa with the flag is terrific.

ReplyDeleteLove your Patriotic Santa...I think it's a Joined at the Hip.
ReplyDeleteI love the table runner on your header, and the patriotic Santa, too. He's adorable.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with that focus thing -- I wouldn't know anything about that. Maybe some day you can explain to me how it works! :)
I love that Santa quilt. It combines two of my favorite things, patriotic and Christmas. Thanks for sharing the photos with us.
ReplyDeleteOf course, you would have a patriotic Santa quilt. I have an applique block (not made into a quilt yet) that has a flag on it. So, I will have one some day.
ReplyDeletethe Santa is wonderful! The table runner is lovely too.

And what a wonderful Santa greeting everyone.
ReplyDeleteBe sure to take time for YOU and rest a bit.
Staying focused is sometimes hard to do this time of year with everything that needs to be done. Love both of your quilts - what a sweet one to have greet you at your door.
ReplyDeleteNice change of colors. Enjoy December and getting things done. Maybe I could get something done if I was home.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Christmas quilt. I hope you'll enter it in my Virtual Christmas Quilt Show.

ReplyDeleteWhat a cute Santa to greet everyone!! Love your table runner too.
ReplyDeleteI love your patriotic Santa, and your banner. I'm going to a quilt show today, and I'm going to try and get some photos. I also loved your kids homemade ornaments. We have lots of these. Our kids made them in Sunday school too.
