I had a bit of a play with the Go!Baby the other day, and before I knew it, I had this table runner put together!
I've been wanting to make an Applecore quilt for a while now. When I saw this runner made by Joanne on her blog the other day, I thought it a good way to have a bit of Applecore fun without embarking on a full size quilt. I was also egged on by our recent purchase of a new TV cabinet which really NEEDS a runner.
I've made a few more of my scrappy houses. I am finding these to be relaxing and fun to make.
This week's theme seemed to have been brown. I'm hoping I can find enough feature fabric to have every house different.
This is 6 made now, so I'm on track for 2 a week so far (OK, we're only part way through the first month, but a good start nonetheless!).
Thanks for popping in - have a great week - happy stitching,
Still a flimsy but hopefully not for too long :-)
(While I was at it I Applecored a pile of Thimbleberry fabrics for a lap quilt. Another project prepped and ready to go when I have the chance.)
Speaking of food, ED was up visiting for a few days and made us a double batch of her fabulous Granola. I sense good breakfasts coming up!.

Love the applecore runner - those colours are yummy and the apple core shape is so pleasing. Never attempted one - is it difficult to construct?

I would love to do the little houses--but just don't see me having time--and I would love to do the farmer's wife--I will just have to give up sleep!!!

Beautiful Applecore, it´s a lovely pattern. I did you sew the this top on the sewingmachine? I looks so prfect! I´m working on a applecorequilt too, but I´m sewing but hand, wich means that it is a very longtime wip :o)
