A Snowy Blowy Sew-y Sunday

A couple of inches of snow arrived overnight last night to make it look more like December in Minnesota outside... now comes the wind and the cold (below zero tonight!). In other words, it's a perfect day to sew.

For starters I have some table runners to bind while I watch football, always a good Sunday activity.

Next, my tree skirt is ready to be sandwiched and quilted. I'm being stubborn (for now) and want to get this finished before I put up the tree! I hope I'm not getting too ambitious with my quilting plans. I want to outline every thing on the background fabric first to stabilize my backing and then straight stitch the tree sections following the V. I'm thinking I'll just stitch inside the squares of the stars and I'm not sure what I'll do in the patchwork corners yet.

Then... can you say Clean-up on Aisle Deb's Quilt Room? I cleared the floor quickly for sandwiching by stuffing those boxes and burying my cutting table on Thursday. Good thing my sewing table faces the other direction so I can stand being in there. Nice floor though huh?
