Step Down Quilt

No automatic alt text available.

Here are my blocks for the Step Down Quilt Along going on at sewyouquilt2. My blocks are all ready for my darker strips. I may have found a fabric in my stash but I just washed it and want to make sure I have enough. These blocks are in no specific order. I still have to decide that. I feel this quilt will be a great way to practice some of the free motion patterns I learned in Margaret Solomon Gunn's class, Dense and Dainty Fillers. These 10 inch squares are the perfect size for a little experimentation!

The Christmas table runners have their binding! I started sewing the binding on the runner on the left. They're not very large so it'...
