Leftovers

The sewing machine is still holding my dining room table captive but I have to say that I've been a bit of an accomplice to that. As I started cleaning things up from my bazaar blitz and getting things ready to return to the basement realized that I had close to enough squares already cut to make a second silver and gold runner for me, so I thought, "What the heck?".












It came together really quickly and is now quilted and ready to be bound. I used double sets of rows of stitching on this one and I quite like it.

And that piece of white and gold holly/berries print that I was hoping to back it with worked out perfectly.

This is all that remains - the quilting gods were on my side.

My luck continued with the binding. The leftovers from the first one were the perfect length! I had absolutely no trimming to do - totally love that.

Time for a little hand stitching and this one will be finished off....M

p.s. There was a question about the Patchwork wine mentioned in my last post and whether or not it is available at the LCBO, and the answer is yes. I couldn't reply directly because it came from a no-reply blogger so I thought I'd mention it here.
