Two tops finished!

One is from our Guild's workshop this week doing 'Fractured Flowers' and is table runner size. Should have been paying closer attention when my fabric was being cut - the repeat was only 12" and should have been 24" - I knew this and we had talked about getting 8 repeats but somehow I came home with only 4. I did only pay for the 4 but thought I had the 8. Oh well, instead of cutting 3" squares, cut 1.5" squares and ended up with table runner size rather than lap quilt size. The border fabric shows the original that was 'fractured'.

The other is a baby quilt for my newest great-niece Nevaeh. It was done using the technique Jenny from Missouri Quilt Co shows in her youtube video using 3 Dudes Quilting technique,

Now, off to chop up leaves / cut grass!
Cheers,
Linda

The technique is in Brenda Esslinger's book 'Fabulous Fractures'.

OH, my double vision! It's the table runner...I like it, just could not look at it more than once!

Great work, and I am sure your niece will love the quilt you made her forever.

Both are lovely - i love the table runner - it is not usually a style I like but that one is outstanding!
