What About Bob?

Bob Wiley [to himself] ... 
baby steps get on the bus, baby steps down the aisle, baby steps... 


That is about how I feel about my adventures back into quilting...  I am really enjoying it but feel like I am just taking baby steps.  I am fine with that though, because half of the fun is in the journey.   Here is my latest (and late) table runner for April/Spring.
I used 17 different pieces of fabric cut into 3 1/2 inch squares.  I used a Kona green for the strip and back.  I rolled the back forwards for my binding which I don't particularly care for but it worked for this.   I was able to do diagonal top stitching even though the outside squares didn't line up.  I guess adding the 1 1/2 inch green strips between the two sets made that work.  Neat!  Now I am trying to figure out if I going to get tired of looking at that for whats left of April, May, and June???   We'll see.


Blessings,
