Twilight


It's been a while since I've posted something quilty here. Summer has been busy with each day passing at warp speed! I had to find time for stitching up this cute runner which is made up of Christmas fabrics by 3 Sisters ~ the raspberries and cool summery greens have it feeling more like late summer.

Twilight is a Little Scraps from This & That design by Sherri K. Falls of Minnesota. The fabric is 3 Sisters ~ Peace on Earth for Christmas. All a terrific gift from Carol at Carol's Crafty Creations. Thanks Carol!

A binding Tutorial at ~ Trends and Traditions ~ helped with binding those inside corners. Thanks Heather!

Hope life is treating you well.
