Design Wall Monday - Wintery runners

 What is on your design wall today?
https://smallquiltsanddollquilts.blogspot.com/

My design wall is mostly empty in anticipation of a long week of meetings and training for work, and almost no sewing time, except for maybe a little handwork in the evenings.  I did finish the long skinny Wintery runner on Sunday evening, and it will go into the mail this week.  It's 11" by 48", made especially to fit a buffet. 


The quilting is simple straight lines, and the backing is left over from a previous project.  

The color is very close to the actual icy blue in this photo.  It's such a pretty batik, with that touch of yellow.  The 5 blocks in the first runner are 6.5" versions of the full size blocks in this runner I'm still working on.  This one has only 3 blocks, and has squared off ends rather than points.  I'm planning to quilt this one pretty much like the smaller one, with simple straight lines.

  1. That is a very unique setting with the blocks and sashing and adding the pointy ends!

  4. I like your buffet runner. Light blues and white always make me think of winter too.
