Oh my goodness, that is a lovely table runner Teacup! I too love tea and teacups and teapots too! Just lovely.

goldendog2, that is a lovely table runner love the colors and of course the butterflies!

I must ask goldendog2, are the teacups appliqued on? Love all the fabrics you used!

Yes, I appliqued the teacups, with pieces from lace doilies underneath them. Then, I stitched them in some places with gold or other poly threads. I do block swaps with several teacup lovers. We met by swapping monthly blocks, and we decided to continue by ourselves. So, I collect teacup fabrics to use in blocks for people who love them. I even got some teacup and tea pot fabrics from Holland, but I didn't use them in this table runner. Even though I'm not a teacup/pot lover, I get blocks made for me that I like this way!

The teacup applique is beautifully done! And then she quilted around each cup. Lucky me!

I don't think I have ever seen such a beautiful assortment of table runners This was my first swap ever when I found out there were other first timers I felt right at home I am so happy I joined this swap what a wonderful experience!!

Aren't they all terrific? You should be receiving yours anytime Judy, I mailed it a few days after you mailed mine so it's on it's way...somewhere out there :thumbup:

The post for the fall tablerunner swap is up. Some of you indicated in your reply to my checking-in message for the summer swap that you definitely wanted to be in the fall swap. Some were thinking about it. Some sent a separate PM, some did not. My mailbox has been pretty full (hey, if you want to get mail, organize a swap! :lol: )

Anyway, you may want to check this group activity link for the fall swap and make sure your name is on it if that's what you intended! I just want to make sure I kept everything straight.

Thanks so much for this beautiful tablerunner!! I love the fabric design - it will be perfect on an antique server in the dining room.
