Happy New Year and Many Thanks!

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

I know across the US, it has been a sad and traumatic year for many of you. The economy and job losses hit the country hard. Too many people have had to readjust their lives and learn to cope with the stress. Even if your situation did not change, I think everyone has family or friends who lost their job. I personally know way too many who had this happen to them.

My wish for 2010 is that the economy improves and that new jobs are created. My magic wand, if I had one, would be to sprinkle these jobs all over, along with laughter, happiness and health.

I want to thank all of you for visiting my blog and website and for your comments and emails throughout the year. And I wish each of you a very Happy New Year.

Quilted table runner - 4 panels to fit each side of your table.

Friday, December 11th, 2009

I love table runners. I recently received a copy of the book Patchwork Table Runners by House of White Birches of the DRG Network and its filled with wonderful table runners to quilt. And, I’m excited that a table runner that I designed is in the book.

I wanted to design something different, so I created this Four Panel Table Runner that fits across 4 sides of a table, plus it can fit just as well on a round table. Another plus is that it can be used instead of placemats. Its easy to make and works up pretty fast.

I hope you check out this book - you will love all the great table runners, including some for the holidays.

Happy Quilting,

Phyllis
