It's Thursday so it's time for a positive and uplifting post. This picture shows that I'm sewing down the binding on my Long Time Gone quilt! The binding is my favorite part! The quilt is done and you can just relax!!
While on vacation last week, I went to a quilt shop and bought this great book. I love table runners and think they would make great Christmas gifts. There are some wonderful patterns in this book. They're all very different. I can't wait to start one!
I also bought this pattern. I have wanted to make a medallion quilt and loved this pattern. I liked the size and thought I could really go scrappy if I wanted.
Lily always lays down next to me when I go to bed. I usually read for awhile. I liked this picture of her. She's laying down, stretched out with her eyes open! So funny!
Those are my likes for this week. I went back to work Monday. I think I liked being off better! Oh, well! Please go visit LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color for more happy posts!

DeleteGreat pic or Lily. I agree binding is the best part and love the color. I have been ogling that book.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Colette. I had a hard time finding that book. One store was sold out so when I saw this copy, I grabbed it!!
DeleteYay for binding! I love your color choice. Looks like a fun book. Lily looks comfy! Been good weather to cuddle in the evening.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sally! I love when the nights cool off! So much better to sleep!

ReplyDeleteI enjoy making and seeing braid patterns - love it in a variety of fabrics as is yours!
You also had some fun purchases this week. Isn't it fun to dream up a new project or two?
