Christmas tablerunner for Ginny

The Christmas table runner was made for an older lady that was a recently made friend. She was so thrilled. I slipped up and left it at her door in the apt complex she lives in with a note, "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus." Took her three days to figure out who made it for her. I used Margaret Miller's block from "100 Blocks, Volume 2". I discovered that orientation of the stripes is what makes this block work. If you haven't had a class with Margaret Miller, you have missed something special. You will never think about quilting the same way again. She is energizing!
