Finally got some pics. I never get the captions with the right pics, so.............

Table runner I gave to MIL on rocking chair.

the white wtih red Christms tree is over 20 years old. I've made many, many of them, but this one is my favorite. (side story--------during the first Gulf war, I made a camo tree that is always with the kids Nativity in our church hall. At the time, my DD and SIL were in the military but not over yonder, so the tree is a tribute to our family & friends in the servide)

The table cloth on the deck rail was made over 20 years ago. The green & red pattern is how the pieces are cut will send in another post

And the little mug rugs. Each ceramic block is 8" so you can judge the size. All made from the pattern from someone on the board.

I'm not fast. I get tired awfully quick. But I've got stuff that needs to be in the mail soon@

Didn't realize how old some of this stuff is until I started to guess. The camo tree was 1990, so the red & white one is even older.

They are all very nice, I really like the "Happy Holidays" that you see on the runner.

Your tree reminds me of the trees my mom made, they were out of net, several sections all different widths, you slid each section onto a candle and the result was in the shape of a tree. I still have mine, it's one of my favorite Christmas decorations!

Would you believe that I had just a few inches of the "happy holidays" stuff. It was a border of some piece of fabric I used years ago. And I mean barely enough for the sashing

How lucky was that - it looks great on that runner! Really adds to it!
