Hey everyone! How is everyone? Old man winter keeps being mischevous! Snow for last 3 days - melting today! My runner is done & ready to go! Packing is coming along I think - in spite of everything I've donated, I've got heaps of stuff that will move with us! Good grief! I think we should have looked for a bigger house not a smaller one! lol
So I'm going to attach the pic of my runner - A Taste of Red; also a pic of the April Aurifil block - the Iberian Lynx, my favorite one to date I think.

Very cute Northern Sue. I also went with a grey and red contemporary runner. Let me see if I can post a picture later on.

What a pretty Lynx. It is paper pieced, correct?

The table runner for the swap.

Beautiful Lynx, Sue! It looks really difficult to do.

Lovely runner, Anna. The red check is perfect for summer. Perfect flying geese.

I’m ready to quilt the table runner. Should be able to finish it tomorrow. Then ready to mail!

Lots of pretty runners in the works! Like Blueridgebeverly I am in the quilting process of my runner. Hope to get it finished this weekend :-)

All the runners looking good.and the lynx looks fabulous

I posted mine out today

Hi everyone! I was in a panic thinking I couldn’t send my runner this time & emailed Carolyn! My husband had an accident with truck & travel trailer on our moving day; most of our clothes, my sewing stuff etc are still in trailer & I thought the runner was too!

but I just found it, so will pop it in mail on Monday! Whew!

my husband is ok thankfully!

Oh, Sue, I’m so glad he is ok!

So sorry to hear Sue but I am glad he is ok. Prayers said.

Glad to hear your man is ok
hope not too much damage to truck and trayler

Table Runner
 

I received a beautiful runner from ekuw today. She did a great job with those little blocks in red! Even little 1 inch half square triangles. Wow!
Thank you, ekuw. So glad you got my name!

I just checked tracking on the TR I posted and it looks like its still waiting for a plane to fly overseas.

ekuw does do beautiful work! RevPam, can you post a picture of the table runner? We all like to oooo and ahhhhhhh over each other’s work.https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png

Here is a pic of the block I made for the runner I sent RevPam. Not sure why I didn't take a photo of the finished runner I usually do. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/hunf.png

Thanks, ekuw, for posting picture of your block. What a gorgeous block! Do you recall the name of the block?

I will try to get hubby to take one. (I am not friends with my cell phone!)

Im glad to say that my tracking has my TR in it's designated country now. Arrived there on the 16th so shouldn't be too long now before it reaches its new home.

I just returned from a long camping trip to the Pacific North West and I came home to an amazing Christmas table runner and bag of goodies from revpam. I love it! It is also super long which is perfect for our long family table. I have a picture but will need to try and post later via the computer as I do not know how to do so from the phone. The blocks are folded stars and look gorgeous. I have never done anything like it. Thank you Pam! I hope you did not have to wait too long to hear back from me that I received the runner and gifts.

The name of the block is "broken dishes". https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png

I received R-Sea’s package yesterday! I love love love it. The flowers in the center of the table runner are awesome.
Roslyn also included some extras. The kangaroo tea towel is so cute and will be a wonderful reminder of R-sea. I appreciate the extra pieces of fabric she included. They will fit right in with the Xs & Os quilt I’ve started planning. Thank you, R-sea!

I received Annaquilts runner yesterday. It is the super cute flying geese runner. The fabrics are really cute & summery; looks great on my patio. She also sent a fat quarter with a fun camper/travel print. Thank you Anna-I love it. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/heart.gif

Hi Ladies,

So sorry I have been MIA... I had to have a small procedure and then just as I was about to get back to things.... my MacBook gave up the ghost...... so, now I have a new pretty rose gold MacBook and will be going through emails!!!!

Hugs

Caroline

Glad you are back Caroline! I too have been MIA, with moving, unpacking etc. And we just finally got internet hooked up, so it's so much easier to get to the site! Haven't received my runner yet, but had a parcel card in mailbox - so maybe tomorrow? Hope so - need some cheer this week! I swear every theme Caroline comes up with, we all knock it out of the park! Our fabric choices, our piecing/patterns? Wow!

Glad you are back Caroline and hope you are feeling better.
You too, Sue. There is so much to do in a move. I hope you are getting settled in to your new place.

That is really cute fabric, annaquilts. Fun table runner and perfect geese.

Glad it got there ekuw. Thank you for your kind note and posting a picture.. It looks like it was made for that table. Enjoy!

Finally got to the mail! And guess what I found? A package from Marion Newman with this beautiful runner! I love red & I love black so this is a perfect fit for me! Thanks so much!

I forgot to ask if we have a new swap planned?

Glad you got it ok sue. I haven't heard from my lovely daughter in law that I've received parcels but then again I forget to ask her. Will do so today

I received Northern Sue's table runner today

That's a beautiful runner you got from Sue, R-sea. I have received mine as well from Caroline. As I'm not home, I can't post a picture but maybe Caroline will

That’s a great table runner, Sue! I like the red, white, and blue theme.

m-Fay, I love that floral print. It’s gorgeous for a table runner.

Hi Sue,

We will have another.... I will post over the next few days!

Caroline
