September One Monthly Goal Finish

Hi everyone! This was the project for September for me to decide on borders and quilt it. It is my Scrapdance Tango Table runner.


All pinned ready for quilting. It did take me a little while to get started on it with boring sew that had to ome first but once that was out the way I was able to set the Pfaff up and get in to some quilting using the Westalee Rulers. Practise is the key to using the rulers.
 All done with the quilting and the binding was next to do. I had made the binding from the left over fabrics from the bundle that I didn't us in the backing of the table runner.
 A little look at the quilting I did in the sashing. It is hard to see as I was using Aurifil white. That way any wobbles in my quilting will not be so noticeable.
Then a couple of nights to finish the binding off.
That fact I got the binding on means I did get a little further on then I thought I would so in the end I am happy.

I have link this post with Elm Street Quilt who host the One Monthly Goal so pop over and check out what else has been finished this month
Time to select October's Project.
Until Next Time
Keep Stitching

Busy Busy Quilting

It has been really busy here. A lot has been happening that I haven't been able to share with everyone as it is secret retreat business. Our first Project Uninterrupted retreat is less than 2 weeks away and I am trying to be one step ahead on myself. I don't want a last minute panic if I can help it.

With that said I still had a couple of sessions of sewing in store that allowed me to slip into a free spot and join in the fun of the classroom. I need to do some ruler work quilting using the Westalee Designs rulers for a demo/ workshop next month and I have some projects that need to be finished.
This table runner is the first one on the pile and the smallest project.
I only used two Rulers to quilt the table, the blocks were quilted with the 6" spiral ruler from the sampler set and the sashing borders were quilted using the ruler that comes with their ruler foot.



By the end of the day I managed to finish quilting the table runner and got the first part on the binding on. Now I am ready to trim it up and finish it up.


Until next time
Keep Stitching
