Monday, my mom and I played hooky from work to take a quilting class. I haven’t quite managed to finish my table runner yet (really, I’m not planning to leave it pinned to a bright pink beach towel forever!) but here’s what I got done in the four-hour class…well, part of it, anyway – just try taking a picture of a 44″x16″ (it still needs borders to get to it’s finished size) table runner, with questionable lighting and a normal camera lens.

\nIt’s not really quilted anywhere, actually. This main part is woven, and the borders are small enough that they will not need any quilting. It’s supposed to be reversible, but since it’s been pinned to that towel all it’s short little life I have no idea what I’ll find when I baste it and turn it over!<\/p>\n

I have to admit, I was a little annoyed to find out, after crawling under my craft table (no small feat at 7 months pregnant) to extract the pedal and power cord so I could bring my (heavier than I remembered) sewing machine that we were told we’d need, that we weren’t actually going to get to the part where we needed the sewing machines during class. (I’m not sure why I trusted them that we’d actually get through the weaving, pinning, basting and<\/i> sewing in four hours, though.) <\/p>\n

But what a fantastic way to spend a Monday! (Mom, can we do this every week?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
