I've got the patterns picked..I think. Need to know my partner's wants first. That will make a difference to which one I should use. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!

Merry Christmas, happy belated birthday Teresa and well I hope that life is treating all of you so well. I am going to have a beautiful Christmas day. Early this morning they had a fire on the tv with music almost like sitting in front of the fire sipping coffee early on lol. not quiet. at all. but did I change the channel? no no I did not. figured what the heck no thinking required :)

I hope you all pick wonderful patterns and those on the fence really have to check out the last couple table runner swaps. Tlambing put all the pictures together in one big photo collage and the selection and creativity was amazing. I am positive this will be the same. by tomorrow morning you should be able to breath again and well with that signing up will be so much easier!

Has anyone seen the newest issue of "McCall's Quick Quilts Feb/Mar 2014"
there is a Valentines table runner that is just to cute!

Plus MANY other awesome projects.

The name of the pattern is called "Lovey Dovie"

Quilty-Louise I haven't got mine in the mail yet. Now I want it to hurry up and get here! I want a Valentine's table runner, think that's going to be my favorite thing right now. One last chance to say Merry Christmas to everyone and hope your holiday was filled with family and friends, wonderful memories and good times. I'm looking forward to the new year and new experiences!

Howdy Everyone! Hope you had a fantastic holiday! I'm smack in the middle of my holiday celebrations (they go all week). First was Christmas, then my B-day (today), then on Saturday is 12th Night, celebrated with many friends, and then last but not least, New Year's!!
Looking forward to this swap, I missed out on all the fun fall swaps due to a major house purge/renovation, and family visiting from the east.
I do not have any pattern in mind yet, there are so many to choose from!! I'll wait til I get my partner and find out what they would like before I pick one.
I did hit a huge fabric sale at one of the local quilt shops tho!! 30% - 50% off everything in the store!! And of course another cat fabric followed me home....!!!!!

Now that the hustle and bustle of Christmas is almost over, don't let quilting boredom set in! Come on and join us. Just think a runner/mat made just for you :) This swap doesn't close for almost 2 weeks yet. Plenty of time to recover from all the festivities. Just take a look at Elisabrat's last table runner swap to see what beautiful creations are being made by this great group of people, and then jump on in!

Oops, forgot to post a link for you.

I'm going to lurk for a bit on this swap. I'm just finally getting back to the point I don't hurt 24/7, so I doubt I'll be able to join. Last night I repaired a couple blankets for a friend and must admit it was so nice to sit in front of my sewing machine again. I'm going to try to finish mom-6's runner today from the last swap. She's been so patient with me, and I'm so thankful. I never knew that starting on Humira would make me hurt so much before it got better. I still have trouble gripping with my dominant (left) hand, so cutting is a challenge, but the straight stitches last night where I only had to guide the fabric through the machine made me feel useful again and give me hope that I'll be back at it in no time. None of my sewn gifts were made for Christmas though, and for that I feel horrible. The people that are most important know what I've been dealing with though, and there's no hard feelings. I feel fortunate to have such understanding friends.

I surely hope you're feeling better soon. I can't imagine what you're going through. I know that your friends and family certainly understand what's going on. My best wishes to you, that you will be pain free soon.

So glad you're starting to feel better! Don't have to rush with that runner on my account. I will enjoy it whenever it arrives. Will give my day a lift just when I need it I'm sure.
