Farmers market table runner...

My cousin gave me that row by row pattern from The Calico Hutch in Hayward, Minnesota. I liked the font on the pattern better than the font for the pattern. So I put the pattern underneath my paper and recreated it. Changing the lines just so, making it look like what wanted, but not really changing the size. The jelly roll is this years fabric challenge. All warm colors. At that point I was thinking I would use the picture as inspiration. I’ve since changed my mind. Going for something that doesn’t require any HSTs. 

Back to farmers market. So far so good. I used heat-n-bond for all the appliqué pieces. I didn’t sew around any of them. I used a narrow straight stitch for the quilting. I’m hoping that will be enough. 

The finished runner. 

More quilt show...

The first two and very bottom picture are from the fabric challenge pack last year. Shades of gray. There were 5 inch squares and a couple fat quarters. The very top one belongs to Karen. The middle one with penguins belongs to my cousin Max. The very bottom sailboats one is mine. 

The other two are older tops that were finally finished. The log cabin goes way back, but never took a completed picture. The other is a Bonnie Hunter pattern called Double Delight.
