Would you like to sew a table runner during your Spring Break?  Then this is the perfect class for you!

Wednesday, March 27

10:00 am - 1:00 pm / $25.

Teacher: Jennifer Kramer

This table runner is made using a charm pack (5" squares) and a 1/2 yard of fabric.  It is a perfect beginner quilt and just a fun way to decorate your table or buffet in time for Easter.  You will finish the top in class and also be given some tips for quilting it yourself.

Call {916} 209-3930 or stop by SKJ to register for the class and receive a class supply list.

christmas medley

This is one of my newest dies from Accuquilt.  I have already used it for a quilt that we will be hanging in the shop soon.  We made some snowflakes using some pretty white on white fabric.  This is the cutest die to use for applique.

I used a fusible pellon to applique the fabrics to the quilt.  First you apply the fusing and then you can run it through the Go! Baby.  If you use this method, then you can layer up to 3 fabrics at a time.  When I made my snowflakes I loved how crisp and clean it came out.

This is the one that I want to make! It is a skinny table runner size, but would look cute bigger as a throw for the couch.  That's what I always like to make!

Or this runner, that comes free when you buy the Christmas Medley die.  See how the snowflakes are cut in half?  Go and visit Accuquilt and look for their Christmas quilts, and their quick videos.

sewing day

I am working on finishing a project that I started last weekend.  It's not that big or complicated.  It's just a table runner.  But life gets in the way of our sewing sometimes.

This is the one that I asked Jenn to make for the shop.  I am making mine using a set of 5" charm squares of this fabric.

Reunion from Sweet Water by Moda.  I love the little banner fabric.  And just adore the green, navy and faded yellows.  I think I have a sister that might like it too.

I used a cream muslin for the side 2" strips, grey for the back, and the binding will be navy.

One of the prints has a subtle chevron pattern.  And that's how decided to use it for the quilting.  Cream thread on top, and grey thread on my bobbin.

The stitching is a little harder to see it on the front of the runner.  But I just love how it turned out.  And I did it!  I'll show it to you again when I get my binding on.  Maybe I'll even show you a picture of it on my table.

Would you like to learn to quilt?  Then start with a smaller project.  This table runner is made using a collection of 5 inch squares.

Made with a fun collection of fabrics called Spring Street.  Which might be a day like tomorrow.  67 Degrees here in Lincoln, California.
