So, I made this table runner, however, I can not receive full credit. Nanette – doitrightquilter.com sent me a box of miscellaneous items and fabric. These adorable little blocks were in the box. I hung them up on my design wall until I figured out what I was going to do with them. They were just to cute to ignore.
So I arranged them until I had them the way I wanted and sewed them up. I did a small meander for my quilting. Oddly making sure I kept the meandering small and similar in size, was not an easy task. I kept having to check myself to make sure I was not getting bigger as I went along. I used a light variegated thread and I did not quilt any of the prints (except background fabrics). I wanted to give the blocks a bit of a 3-D look. It worked for the most part.
I really enjoyed making this. I am currently working with some other blocks that Nanette sent me. It is sort of like a quilt puzzle. I take what I have and see where it fits together. Thank you Nanette!.
Happy Sewing

Hi Lori! How fun, putting the puzzle together. Someone else calls it the Parts Department, so Nanette just took an inventory for the new year. I love this whole idea! Have fun with the other blocks – can’t wait to see where and how they end up. I could send you some of my Parts Department, too. Mish mash quilts are so fun, plus you get to really exercise some creativity. Happy Friday to you!! ~smile~ Roseanne
