I have had the Moda Laura's London Lawns II charm pack for several years and "finally" decided to do something with it. I made HSTs with the charm pack fabrics and two different white on white fabrics. This will make a great spring or summer table runner.
I quilted it with white thread on the white portion and a variegated blue, pink and green on the colored portions.
There were some 5" squares left over, so I cut them into 2 1/2" squares and made a couple simple doll quilts out of them using the backing fabric for the alternating yellow squares.
I dug around in my stash to find a backing for the doll quilts and came up with this Timeless Treasures doll fabric by Bonnie Benn Stratton. It is to cute and I had been saving it for something - but didn't know what.
I still need to sew on the binding, but will get that done this weekend. Thanks for visiting! What have you been working on?
Very nice! Cute backing for the dolly quilt.
ReplyDeleteI love how you quilted the sashings in the table runner! The doll quilts are precious. I've been working "cultivating" wildflowers this week, and finally got the big thing sandwiched yesterday. I hope to begin quilting it today; don't know how much I'll get done with looking out for storms here today. ---"Love"
ReplyDeleteWay to use up every little scrap.
ReplyDeleteI love the backing on your doll quilt. Perfect for the child in all of us.
Very pretty. I love the quilting!
ReplyDeleteLove all your new projects. I have been knitting. Can you believe it? I started one project, it's nearly finished, and I have another in the works. Like I need another hobby.
ReplyDeleteYour table runner is inspiring. I have a need for 3 table runners soon, and I think I might use your idea for one of them. Very nice.
Such nice quilting on your runner!
ReplyDeleteOf course, I love the way you used the scraps. Very sweet little quilts, and PERFECT backing fabric!! : )
Love all these projects and especially the sash quilting on your table runner!
ReplyDeleteThe London Lawns fabrics are so soft, pretty, and feminine looking.
ReplyDeleteYour table runner is so pretty. I love the quilting you did on it! And those doll quilts are sweet... especially the fabric you used for the backing. Some little one is going to love them.
ReplyDeleteYour table runner is so pretty, it does look like summer. The fabrics are so very pretty! The little doll quilts are so cute, the backing fabric is just adorable. Looks like you are having sew much fun!
ReplyDeleteWell, you've been so busy getting those projects moved along so nicely! Good work and a perfect use for that carefully saved dolly fabric. My low energy coughing/cold left me with only one row pinned to sashing and not even sewn yet. Maybe today.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet.
ReplyDeleteThe quilting on the table runner is great and makes a simple design so much more. The back for the little doll quilt is sweet and a perfect fit for it's purpose.
ReplyDeleteA wonderfully Spring table runner - such pretty fabrics. Your doll quilts are charming as always.
ReplyDeleteI have that adorable doll fabric too...cannot make myself cut it! Love your new table runner!
