I finished making the top for Renakr and have it sandwiched & basted together. I was practicing machine quilting (because I'm new at that, being a hand quilter) and ended up breaking off the dial that raises and lowers the feed dogs. The pieces of the dial are somewhere inside my machine.

Monday I took my baby to see the doctor and he admitted her to the hospital. I don't know when she'll be discharged because the part had to be ordered. Good thing we have until the end of August.

I was a little ahead...had cut out a fall table runner last year, but never finished it. I am going to substitute a couple of the elements with batiks, and then just sew it together...How easy is that?? I lucked out!!

So sorry to hear about your machine! Hope it is better soon.

Good news: I got my final fabric tonight for Alu's runner. Bad news: I'm leaving this weekend and will be away from the sewing machine for an entire week. So it will be another week until I get to work on it again!

I can't believe some of you are almost done already!

Got all my blocks for Montanablu's runner sewn yesterday. :) Now have to cut and resew the blocks to get the final look before sewing them together. Here's a hint, it is all curves. :) Forgot my template at home so couldn't get the 2nd cut done at the shop, but hope to work on it today and may finish the 1st one. Loving this exchange

I have the tops done just need to sandwich, quilt, and bind the one for ragamuffin.
I too liked the first one so much I made a second one for me!
