First finish of April

 
My regular readers know that I love bright colors. They make me happy. This photo shows the colors very accurately.  Yellow isn't usually one of those colors that I tend to use - for anything. But in this case I decided that yellow was the best option for my background and I liked it so well that I bought more for the backing of this table runner.
 
 
The backing is the same vibrant yellow but in order to show off the delightful quilting, the faded light works better.  The thread is a variegated in the same yellow, red, green colors.  And I love the stitching design.
 
This is the Bread and Butter table runner by Deb Tucker.  Very easy project with good instructions. It was fun to see a few others at guild on Saturday, as I had to leave early the day we did the class. So many totally different looks, but all of the runners were beautiful.

Great finish! The yellow was a good choice for the background and the backing.

I love it! I was just thinking today that I should make my aunt a table runner for her 95th birthday!!
