Finishes, Re-finishes & a new blogger

Last Friday saw me adding wadding, then quilting & binding some things that had sat for a few weeks ready to go. I managed to get all but 2 done that day. That night saw me hand sewing binding down. It was after midnight that i went to bed but still there was more to finish by hand. Midnight finish Saturday night too. :) The weekend saw all them nailed on the head.
These 4 simple runners. All but 1 of these was made from fat 1/4's.
A couple of years ago Michelle was moving & she decided to have a giveaway as part of cleaning/packing up. I received this runner from her. I just love the colours in it. So me. :) lol
I'd finished this stitchery ages ago & it finally made it to the top of the UFO box to be finished. Now for my re-finishes.
 These 2 stitcheries were finished many years ago but i'd framed them in frames. I was looking at them recently & decided they were getting too damaged. I put borders on them this time around.
Another 2 re-finishes. Lastly the new blogger. Please drop by & visit Pami. If you all drop by & encourage her she may post pictures of her beautiful craftwork instead of piccies of her car & Eric Bana. :)

Happy Stitching,

#4 Chookshed Stitchers Challenge.

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
