So I am not deliberately trying to participate in Project Quilting. 2 weeks ago I finally had some time to myself and wanted to play and was inspired by the square in a square challenge 1. I pulled out my scrap bins picked what I liked and came up with this:
A table runner - the scraps decided the design and size. I was really going to make a pillow.
This time I read the new challenge and again had no intention of doing it. I have lots of other projects on my plate. Challenge 2 is your favorite color. I was thinking last night how I really need a new mug rug for my desk at work. I had made a really cute one 2 summers ago. But somehow I lost it over this past summer. So....
"Chevy Green"
"Chevy Green"
Yes I made a mug rug, My favorite color is a green/blue green.. Secondary is gray. I needed a little mug rug for my desk at work so I made one.
Another cool green and gray print for the back.
So here is my submission I was not going to make. Yet somehow I did. I also have been working on catching up with the Grandmother's Choice BOW. During my fabric destash I found some more repro prints from the 1990's to use.
I've made blocks #1-6 already. But then wedding stuff got in the way. I m trying to catch up.

We had horrible sleet on Friday. We got out of school early and I had a hard time getting home as the wind shield kept freezing. |

Great job colleen -- yeah isn't it funny how we end up doing things we weren't going to get involved with when it comes to quilting.
