Wednesday already? Here is my WIP for this week, actually on the right day for once. This is a table runner I started after Christmas, and it will be a gift for one of my sister-in-laws. She is a techno-phobe and does not even read her email, much less my blog, so I am safe to post pictures here. I love her, but I wish she would join us in the twenty-first century.I am still working out how to complete this. I thought about a circular vine, I want to leave room in the center for a vase or candle centerpiece. I even thought about including one in the gift, so if I bought it first I could design around it. As you can probably tell, this is machine applique.
On the "art" side, I have been sketching for my ladder series. The 12th will be here before you know it, and I hope I have something to show.

Lovely runner. I think January is a great time to work on Christmas ideas/gifts.
Beautiful table runner and I am not typically fond of table runners. Love the roses!
Oh, lovely, Jen. There is just something about red and green fabrics together, no matter the time of year =-) I notice you have one of those bobbin doughnuts...how do you like it, I got one for Xmas and haven't loaded it yet...
Hi Jen, I love the red fabric in this runner. It's so lovely. Lucky sister-in-law. Thanks for showing it.
Very pretty and will be a lovely gift.
Yummy tablerunner! how about a really big red rose in the center with leaves all around - that could be a focal point for the candle...
It's gorgeous, Jen. I'm sure your SIL will love it.
Loved your tablerunner! The colors you chose are always a winner combination. Lucky your sister in law...
Happy New Year. This is a beautiful table runner.
