    Default Birdsong, a stack and whack for my Easter decor

    Here's my latest stack and whack, I only had a couple of yards of the main fabric, but it was enough to make a 36 x 36 wall hanging and table runner, which I think will look great with my Blue Calico dishes. And I still have 16 of the little 4-patch squares which I'm planning to use as the center of some scrappy churn dash blocks.
    Another member posted a picture of this same fabric quite some time ago. She was asking if it would make a good SNW. I told her that I had the same fabric in my stash and planned to make a SNW and would let her know when that finally happened. Don't you know that I can't find that thread anywhere I hope she see's this one.

    Beautifully done! I never would think that fabric would make such a gorgeous s&W. I love your setting too. The secondary star pattern formed is fabulous as is your hook feather quilting in that space. The matching table runner is also stunning.

    oh my, I hope you have some of the fabric left! It is so beautiful I would have had such a hard time cutting into it!

    They are both beautiful, but that runner is stunning.
