    I got it I got it!!! and taking bows.. dear dear Anastasia you didnt have a chance. lol.. I think my partner(s?) will be fun to work with so far I have this much to say about my partner(s?) quilting is a big hobby. yup its true. my partner(s?) quilt. a lot. also true. So I think its safe to say no matter what I make with fabric the tablerunner will be easy to make. I found two great patterns on equilter yesterday. I downloaded their patterns think two were $6.50 not bad at all. I am creative to a point. I wanted something special this time. Now to pull fabric. What a horrible job. boy spending time going through my fabric that is a tough time let me tellyou.. suddenly the oh I can use this or I can use that starts coming out and I could have ten runners finished in my mind. No I am not making ten. that is your last clue of the day too. oh I forgot my tablerunner(s?) will be leaving my home sometime in January. Unless we are allowed to ship earlier. Reading the rules is sooo helpful groan. I read them once that counts right? too bad my memory is not good enough for recall however. I wish my partner(s?) would post here or in their signature perhaps what color the really would like.. anything is hardly a color statement and encompasses some scary fabric like a Wrestling pro fabric in the snow. help you guys post what you love or really would love not to get.

    hehe.. there is nothing in the rules page about shipping early, just that it must be shipped BY date. so ship whenever you're done if you want. My person will probably see theirs sometime in february hahahah. And it will probably look like I mutilated it out of frustration. Have I mentioned that.. well.. I don't quilt? hehehe.. I can sew.. I can sew straight lines pretty darned well.. and I can do curvy ones ok.. but thats about it.. quilting.. whole new beast. hehe.

    *I*.. am really rather partial to the blue/white/silver kind of thing.. But.... I do love other things christmasy as well. I have to figure out which of the 80 things I posted as inspiration ideas I might want to turn into a table runner. or dig for something else.. hehe.

    I am still thinking apples and apple pie... Is this a wintry enough subject??? I would rather eat apple pie than Ice cream in the winter.... Well maybe not if the ice cream is Chocolate! Double double Chocolate wins over all other desserts...

    See how my mind works, I think about a table runner for two seconds and then my mind turns to sweets~

    Well.. I rather oddly enough, tend to eat ice cream more often in the winter than other times of the year. I think it's the while white fluffy creamy look of fresh snow.. gets me in the mood for ice cream.. but I do eat it in the summer as well. Almost never in spring and fall though.. kinda odd. I can't remember when I last ate some.. I think it was.. labor day maybe.. only because there was a get together kind of thing at my house? or maybe it was... that other holiday that happens around there? memorial day? I dunno.. ti's been awhile.. and i"m finally thinking I'd like to dig into the ice cream bucket again. So we have ice cream for apple pie for thursday. I got 2 apple pies.. RWAR!

    And yes.. double chocolate always wins.

    Oh no apple pie needs ice cream a nice french vanilla.. oh yes so toss in some creamwith your pie girly. And Anastasia my dear your a fine quilter. Quit fishing! lol.

    ok last ice cream I ate was pumpkin. Loved it the first tme but well you have to buy a quart and that is a lot of pumpkin ice cream. I am glad to have forced myself to eat it all so it does not burdon my freezer by taking up space. phew. that was tough. blues and whites and silvers have always been my go to for January decorating but now I think there are a billion options thanks to you here at the board. Anastasia you prompted a lot of artsy thinking. cool cool cool. I just found some very cool fabric for winter. that is your clue of the nite last one.
