Nursequilter and myself have been in contact with each other. Looks like we are both pretty easy to please. This is going to be a lot of fun.

Here's some sneak peeks at what I'm working on for Oksewnsew. I'm actually done with my top already, but don't want to spoil the surprise. I'll get around to machine quilting it next weekend!

Peek-A-Boo Photo for Annt59

Peek-A-Boo for Annt59,

This is the center Dresden for the runner. It is 19 1/2 inches across the widest point. I cut 9 inch strips of each fabric to make 9 inch blades...there are 21 blades. Since this is my first table runner...it seems this runner will need to be at least 28 inches wide and 66 inches long. I am thinking of making the 2 other plates using 7 inch strips..so they are smaller. As for the center....I usually keep them small....3 inch diameter max.

What say you fellow swappers???? This will be the only progress photo until its finished.

Thanks MizMelly ! I love making them! I have made so many that my husband calls me the Dresden Queen :).
On this one....I went a little overboard wanting to showcase the fabric and made it a little big for a runner....and.....this is the first table runner I have ever made! Time to get creative!
