Friends from elementary school came together at The Studio yesterday to celebrate the holidays and friendship. We LOVE it when this happens and we get to be a part of it. Thanks Dianne, pictured in the middle, for sharing your friends with us. You remember her from the huge mural project recently (see it here).

Just completed this cute little applique tablerunner using preprinted red squares that I picked up at a sale last year. They worked out great for putting some little appliques on them. This little runner is perfect for my dresser top. This would make a fun and easy class. It would be a great way to learn or improve applique work plus learn to use special stitches on your machine. Maybe we can get it on the calendar soon.

Just finished the Tree & GIft Table Topper last night and got the binding on. I love it. Lincoln isn’t sure yet. And it can easily be made into a tree skirt as well. Cute, huh?

As we just announced we will begin our “Banner Year” soon featuring a quilted banner for each month of the year. This one with our patchwork acorn and pinwheels will be November’s banner. The hardest part of designing this year long class is narrowing down the ideas. But that will be good news for those who participate because they will get several patterns each month. WooHoo! We love bonus patterns, don’t you???!!!! The schedule for the first quarte should be ready today or tomorrow so be sure to watch for it on The Studio Facebook page. If you haven’t “liked” our page be sure to do that now.

I’ve been working on a series of quilted banners that will feature a different image to represent every month of the year. They can be used as banners…or with a few additions they can be made into a tablerunner. And you could even combine them all to make a great quilt. There will be an announcement soon for the first class in this series. And the first 6 to register will receive one of these really nice banner holders. Watch for the date of the upcoming class. And over the next few days we will feature on the blog the banners for the first few months in the series.
