Whew. I finished it. I sewed down most of the binding last night ...
... while handing out candy to my four (count 'em 4!) groups of trick-or-treaters. I was actually pretty excited since that was four (count 'em 4!) times the number of groups I had last year.
My house is not really easy to get to.
I just love my new tablerunner ... and the pattern that is available for you, so that you too can have a lovely Coastal Christmas.
No matter where you live.
It took me some time because I fused and then quilted 55 scallop shells onto my topiary.
It was a wonderful exercise in machine quilting. That is not usually my favorite part of the process but in this case it was just one of my favorite parts.
Actually, I have to say that I enjoyed every part of making this one.
In fact, the back brings me a lot of JOY also.
So ... what do you think? Did I do my original inspiration justice?
Thank you again to Romantic Homes ... November 2011.
Please stop by my Etsy Shop and pick up a pattern.
Now that Halloween is over you can officially jump feet first into the Holidays.
I have.
It's lovely!
