What a creative use of green charms--and a table. "Redneck" or not, it does the job!

What an awesome hubby! Love the book idea...and I know what you mean by using it more for sewing more than eating! My quilt frame is in the living room. I love it there because that's where our family hangs out! We don't 'formally entertain' so better to make the living room some place we want to be!

And yes, my hubby cut a hole in our dining room table for my machine! My daughter just shakes her head. You might be a quilting redneck if you...

Great use of the green charms, very pretty blocks! Kudos to you and DH for having a dual purpose dining table.

Like the geese, but I love your table. I'm experiencing table envy. I have a koala table with far less useable space.
