At least they are equal opportunity helpers - now they are sitting on my crochet instructions for making snowflakes....so not helping....

I found boarder fabric for the Goose on the Loose quilt.  I was looking for something a bit less orange, but...it's not bad.  It's ready to get sandwiched up and quilted.

 

I got the table runner put together, ready to start practicing quilting!  I did have more "help" than I needed though.  I keep trying to tell her that quilts are supposed to keep us warm, she doesn't need to keep them warm.....

 

My newest project - a fall table runner.  The blocks are pretty simple, which provides room for some fancy quilting - in my case, an opportunity to quilt something small and if I do it wrong, it was just a table runner.  The idea is from one of the quilting books I picked up in Paducah this summer.  It has the pattern for the runner and several different ways to quilt it - a "sampler" of quilting patterns as a way to learn.  Hopefully it's successful enough I can use it!

 

I walked down the hallway last weekend, probably in my usual "hurry" mode, and slipped and almost fell.  The floor was covered in sand.  Sand?  I don't have anything "sandy" in the house??  I had sand in almost every room.  

As I was sweeping the entire house, I ran across this poor deflated toy....Roomba seems to have found one of AJ's old lizards toys and carried it around for a while, losing sand the whole time.  Mystery solved!
