Saltwater Mini

 I spent the afternoon connecting all the pieces to the table runner that matches the mini.



 I also got the mini sandwiched and ready for quilting.


 I used the bigger blocks for the ends and just used some squares for the middle of the table runner. I have a big tray that will sit in the middle of it anyway and I am really over making those fancy little blocks.



 I turned the first corner of the Dresden. I was dreading it but the edge quilting has actually been fun to do.



I know you think I am crazy but I am sad that I only have two more blocks to rip out of Daddio's Thangles quilt. It's the best thing for listening to a good book. Nothing to think about, just rip, rip, rip and then pick, pick, pick out all those loose threads. It's a mess when you're done but it's a good mess.

  1. Beautiful quilts. I really like how the mini is turning out and the blocks in the center of the runner were a great idea. When I saw the lint roller on Daddio’s quilt I thought it was a cardboard toilet paper roll and couldn’t figure out why it was there. Ha!!!

  4. The table runner and mini are wonderful. I completely understand your reluctance to making more of the blocks.
