I was looking for a quick finish and saw this kit for a runner. I liked the material, I am using it in another project, so I sent for it. Making the little blocks was fun. When I was putting them together, I wasn't sure if I really liked it. But, it was going to get completed.
After it was a flimsy, I sandwiched it and then machine quilted it. I first stitched in the ditch around the blocks and then put in the crosshatch pattern. I still wasn't sure if I liked it.
I began cutting the dark material that they had for the binding strips. Again I am thinking: what am I doing. Only after I had sewn on the binding did I like it. That dark binding was needed.
This runner has now gone to Maine to be with one of the kids. It was quick finish and now I am back to my quilts.
