QC by Spencer Note the sahuaro rib stool in the background. This stool was in Tata's laundry room forever. I think Granddad made it. It's one of my earliest memories from her house.
I made this table runner to have for a just in case gift, but it looks so nice on my gray stone table that I may keep it. The fabrics are mostly from my stash. The backing is the rest of the outer border from Hannah's Beatrix Potter quilt. The pattern is one I designed myself to show off the cactus print. The green print cotton for the binding was bought for the project. I quilted a meandering loopy design with several sahuaro designs. Daddy made the sahuaro template for me.
I put this in the donation box, for now. ;-)
