Santa is coming table runner!

Hi everyone!

I hope you are all having a wonderful day.

I know I said I would have another tutorial for you today,

but I just didn't have time to finish it.

I have to work a 12 hour night shift tonight and

I needed to get some sleep before I go in.

I did finish the table runner though.

So, I will show you those pictures.

This is my original design.

I hope you like it. I used the GO! Isosceles triangle die to make it.

This was more difficult then I had imagined.

I had to rip a lot of seams out in order to get it right.

That's why it's taking so long for me to finish the tutorial.

I had to make sure that I was going to be able to show you a way to get the triangles together without pulling you hair out like I did.

This will definitely be an intermediate pattern.

I really had fun with the quilting. The Santa faces are appliqued with fusible web. I used free motion quilting to stitch them down. I like the technique of quilting the fusible web appliques down, instead of stitching them before the quilting is done. This way you only sew them once and it's done. I used fabric from my stash to make this. I have another Christmas project in mind to bust more of my Christmas stash. The GO! Cutter is really helping me use up some of my fabric stash. I love that!!!

Well, don't forget about the GO! Cutter giveaway, on my previous post. Make sure you leave a comment on that post for a chance to win. I'm loving all the comments. It just brings a smile to my face knowing that I'm part of the process of giving a free GO! Cutter to someone. Thanks to Accuquilt for giving me this opportunity. It's just been so much fun.

Well, I have to get ready for work now. I need to leave by 6 pm. So, off I GO!

Hugs
