Moving Along

I have been quilting yardage to cut into table runner/placemat combinations. They don't take long to quilt, but I seriously underestimated the time required to put the binding on the separate pieces. I got this set done:

I think they're pretty cute, but I still have three more sets to bind! Hahaha....might as well laugh about it as I do it to myself. 

I also got borders put on the Oklahoma quilt. The pattern doesn't show it with borders.

This is what mine looked like before--without the borders. It’s not quite big enough to suit my purpose.

It took some looking to find a yard of coordinating fabric I could use for the border, but I finally did locate some at a price I was willing to pay. Here’s what it looks like with two borders added:

The picture is a little messy, but I really like the borders. It looks so much more finished. And, it’s 15” bigger. 

Three of the grandkids went back to school. Not sure about the fourth one. Nobody tells me much—I think I am on a need-to-know basis. Here are the obligatory pictures of my little darlings.
