The local quilt group I attend had a meeting today, and we began making a table runner. It was lots of fun to see how the colors each of us chose made the same pattern look so different. I found a focus fabric and the other necessary colors in my stash, so I’m thrilled that this will be a “freebie” — it doesn’t count if I bought it a few years ago, right? 😉 The top of my runner is almost finished; I’ll complete it on Sunday at a friend’s house. In the meantime, here’s a hint of what it will look like.

I'm a retired high school French teacher from Arizona, now living in the Las Vegas area. I loved teaching French, but I love retirement even more! I'm a quilter, and most of what you see here will be about quilting, though I've also taken up knitting, and I love to bake. :)

Cute choices! One of my group bought a bag of fabric at a thrift store, and when she opened it, it had 1000’s of 4 1/2 inch squares in all shades of purple!
