The Gnomes are all blanket stitched finally, and the runner is now sandwiched and ready to quilt. Normally the blanket stitching wouldn't have taken so long. But 4 different thread colors, and those little wispy beard edges slowed down the process. I think the grey thread I used to quilt the snowflake runner will be perfect for this one too.
A bold red and black backing was pulled from the stash. I do wonder what I originally bought that for since there was about 3 yards of it. It's always good to find something in the stash that works for a backing. Even the batting was a scrap left over from another quilt. This will be my main goal for this week - quilting and binding this Gnome table runner.

ReplyDeleteI need to get going on my woodsy gnomes!! I even have Fall charm squares set aside that I had planned to use for a Twister, so that just leaves the gnome fabrics to pull.
