Green is leading me to Christmas

 With this month's color being green, I started thinking about Christmas projects, even though lime green may not be the shade normally be associated with that holiday.  Then I saw this project in a magazine, and you know how easily distracted I am.  So, Christmas table runner #2 is ready to quilt and this one has a touch of lime green. This runner looks kind of busy.  Maybe I should have put a solid red border on it.   Hmmmm . . .


Runner #1 used aqua with pink and red, and again I used the busy print as the border.  It's also ready to quilt.  But I probably won't decide how to quilt these until all 3 are ready.


Runner #3 just needs the border and my plan is to use the snowman print.  Since I used up most of that dark red fat quarter, I guess the decision was made for me.  All 3 runners will use the print from the Crossed Canoes blocks as the border.

  3. I like the red peppermint fabric. Definitely keep it! I never thought of crossed canoes as Christmassy, but it makes a perfect block. They all look like Christmas ornaments!

  5. Fantastic table runners! I used a lime in a recent Christmas runner! It’s a modern look that millennials might love! I am partial to the snowman one! Good old fashioned me! I’ve never done a Crossed Canoe block! I may have to try one! Thanks for the inspiration!
