Get Red Red Ready for Christmas

About 18 months ago I was visiting The Patchwork Angel…and this book caught my eye…

So I have studied it up...

until about 2 months ago

when I started this project

Well not only have I made the table runner …..

I machine Quilted it also..

First article I have quilted……

The feeling of achievement is great….

I am sure

more I do the better I will get.

How pleased when the last stitch on the binding….

I went snip.

And then I could set the table and sit

admire my work

…..my oh my……..

I felt my work is completed…

sit back and enjoy cake and coffee……..
