Last and First Old out New in

How is everyone on this nice gray day in the Midwest. I am going to show a few things I did at the end of 2010. My last project of the year was this little table runner for my daughter. She had these four M&M fabrics and asked if there was anything I could make out of them.
I came to visit her for Christmas(bringing no quilting supplies so of course had to make a quick trip to JoAnn's) Now, whenever I am there only need fabric and patterns. I'm all set to start...what to do what to do..
I decided to fussy cut the little Christmas M&M characters and set on point and use the all over print for square in square. Then the green for setting tri's and used the large M&M for backing.
It came out to 9"by30". As you can see just right for her little table which is in the M&M room. She was very glad to have something made from her Ebay find.


I had planned on making her another project when I went out knowing she had a sewing machine. I had a pattern from A Legacy of Stitches blog.... a wonderful candle mat for her dining room table.I think it turned out rather nicely. This is before quilting and binding. So, this is my 1st finish of the New Year 2011.

Happy Stitches,Margie
