And One More...
Early last week I got an itch to make a table runner for the future bride and groom. One they can put on their table or on their dresser as they see fit. I had some very pretty tan linen with the striped border and I sat down and began to play with fabrics from my stash. I have not make a Dresden before and rather enjoyed the process.
The future bride and groom have been sweethearts since middle school and I got the notion that maybe there's a tree somewhere with their initials on it. I also had to add some yo-yo's - for fun!
It was a fun project. I enjoyed all the hand quilting with pretty perle cotton. I did buy them some sheets as well because I have come to realize that people really do want things off their registry.
With joy,
