Hello everyone, thought I would make an appearance.... I don't always get a chance to chat, but I do try read all the posts as I receive them.
No, I haven't started my table runner yet....have to rethink the color scheme, my swapper has a different color scheme then a winter scheme. I will start after Christmas.
So a little about me.....I work full time in town, 25 miles away. We just bought this house last December, and now that my hubby is home from the hi way construction season for winter. He has plans to get the remodeling done NOW. So my quilting has slowed some.
Have worked on some machine embroidery/quilting gifts and LAQ our DS quilt last weekend, still have binding to do, but it will be done before Christmas.
Went through Christmas decorations/lights yesterday. Hope to get up this afternoon. First Christmas tree in a house in 2 years.....can't wait.
When I get things finished here, my kitchen has chicken-farm theme, living room is cream/ cranberry or maroon/withe a touch of hunter green. Still deciding on bedrooms. We are remodeling a large a small bedroom into a master suite with walkin closent. DH has removed 2 Windows out of new closent room and has filled in with siding/insulation/Sheetrock and is tape and texture today, so I will be painting soon. Then I hope he just works on closent insides till after Christmas.
I was drawn to this swap because of the Winter scene title.....with that being said, I collect snowman and decorate throughout with them and snow flakes. My favorite color is Blues and cream. But have been know to have greens mixed in somewhere.
Next to collecting snowmen, I also have a collection of Campbell soup stuff and. A very large collection of Thimbles. I also have a large collection of Denim kids from Home Interior.
My favorite favorite fabric designer is Holly Taylor and Nancy Halverson. So I have a few collections of their fabrics. Plus a lot of western/country, snow flakes/snowmen fabrics. I have about 50 blocks to go on the Farmers Wife Sampler-using Kansas troubles fabrics with some addition fabrics that are similar.
Well this is a little about me....ohhhhh I have 3 DK's of mine own and 2 stepson's. and 8 DGC and one 4 month old puppy named Shelby.
I am hoping to learn a little more about my swapper, so I can have more of an idea for a design/color.
I hope don't sound too boring.....your quilting table runner pal
