Like buses...

...you wait around ages for a finish and then two turn up at once.

A finished Christmas table runner based on Rebecca Silbaugh's Santa's Cookie Mat pattern made with a Moda Joy charm pack and a Moda solids charm pack. It's bound in a Makower fabric.


I quilted it using a large stipple and took the risk of using a different coloured top and bottom thread to blend the quilting in on the backing.  It's not worked absolutely perfectly as the top thread is visible on the back in places but it's better than using white on the back.


I adore this backing fabric, holly leaves with a gold outline, which I picked up in a fabric mill.

All in all I'm really pleased with this finish and will definitely be making more things using this design.
