My Long Arm Quilter sent an email last week stating my name came up for (3) more quilts. Oops! I better get the tops, backs and batting ready for Thursday, the 22nd. That's the day I chose to have everything ready to take to Susan. Yesterday, I worked on "Here Comes Santa". I'm really happy with the border fabric. I had enough for the binding and for 2 borders sewn to the backing fabric. I'm hoping Susan can machine quilt the reins. If not, I'll have to add them later. I never have found the pattern.

On Friday, I worked most of the day and up until midnight working on a Tablerunner for my Secret Sister at church. The top went together nicely but the machine quilting with the walking foot took much longer than I
had anticipated. Finding enough fabric for the back and the binding that matched was a challenge. Thankfully, I only had to piece about 10 strips together and I was able to sew the binding down with no seams falling on the corners. Yea!
