My baby sister Flynn's birthday is this week. Remember all those scraps I was playing with this past week? Well they were turned into a runner. I am not sure if she will like it or not, but it is colorful!
The fabric on the back is one my favorites, a Heather Bailey from long ago. I like it with the binding.
Today my granddaughter, Maddy made a counter quilt. I wanted to go through some charm squares and she needed to see all of them.
This is her favorite, she even took it with her! Apparently we are now sharing fabric....
We did not have enough time for glitter today but she still managed to get into the craft room to make me a card. These are the days you want to keep forever.

Kelly grand kids are the best! Fabric addiction , sorry, acquisition should definitely be started at a young age lol. Love what you have done with your fabric scraps, if your sister doesn't like it I'm sure I could find a place for it. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, so pretty! Lovely tablerunner, Kelly.
ReplyDeleteAw, your granddaughter is precious. Laughed at you're now "sharing" fabric!
Starting her stash early ! Smart girl !! Must take after her grandmother !
ReplyDeleteAw, love the sharing of the fabric! The runner looks fabulous, your sister will love it.
ReplyDeleteoh, I am positive that your sister will love that colorful tablerunner, Kelly. You are certainly making memories with Maddy!
ReplyDeleteLucky you to have such an adorable granddaughter to play with you in the sewing room. She obviously already has excellent taste in fabric preferences! Cute runner for your little sis too. Hope she likes it.

ReplyDeleteDarling tablerunner! What fun scraps you have. I'm sure your sister will love it.
ReplyDeleteI love Maddy's "counter quilt". LOL And I laughed at the "sharing" of fabric. I got to play with fabric and my granddaughters on Saturday. We even went to the fabric store together!
That table runner turned out pretty good! I think she is going to love it. Counter top quilt... What fun!
ReplyDeleteKelly, All these Maddie stories are so fun to read. Now that my daughter is almost on her way out to college, these stories make me think of all the fun Kavita and I used to have.
Maddie is lucky to have you in her life.
Your table runner is beautiful ! I love all the colors, in fact, it is pretty much what I love to do the most...color!
ReplyDeleteThe runner is awesome!! All the wonderful colors just make me smile.
ReplyDeleteI would have loved going through charm squares too. I bet I would have started "sharing" fabric too. I can hardly pass by a charm pack without taking it home with me.
Your granddaughter is just adorable.
A counter quilt! Love it. She will have such fond memories of the time she spends with you. And I love your new header.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun table runner, your sister will love it!! I love the card Maddie made for you, such a perfect record of a wonderful day spent together. The counter quilt is brilliant!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! What a sweet post. I wish I was good at machine applique like your header. How did you get so good at that?
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! What fun it will be when she starts sewing with you.
ReplyDeleteGreat table runner.
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely to see your grand daughter showing and interest in fabric. Lovely.
We are in PA at the moment. Do you know if there is a quilt on display at Longwood?
great looking runner for Flynn (I love her name!) I'm sure she'll love it.
ReplyDeleteMaddie is just too cute! She's so lucky to have such a creative grandma!
I love her card.
