Busy 2011

Just before Christmas I started making a table runner I had seen in a book lent to me by my
aunt. Here are a couple of picture of it in the making, it is now on our dining room table. I am please with it.
Two weekends ago I found time to make two coasters, they now reside on my desk at work. We are not encouraged to have personal stuff on our desks, but I figured that a mug mat isn't really that personal!
