Table Runner Time...

One of our daughters-in-law celebrates a birthday next week. She uses table runners all the time on their main dining table, and I've gifted her seasonal runners in the past to adorn it. So, I think it's time to make a new one for her. I'm leaning toward one of these.

I'm also going to be seeing a dear friend, Judy (from Tennessee) this weekend, as she's going to be in Wisconsin for a competition event. Her corgis run in FASTCAT, which is a timed running event. Each dog individually chases a lure and is the only one on the course. I'm not sure of all the rules, but I think they get two chances to achieve their best time. I'll tell you more about it after the weekend, and there will be photos!

I'll be a spectator for her two dogs, plus get the added  bonus of visiting with her. When I'm home, I'll be sewing. I may do one of these patterns, or I may decide to do a pieced runner. Either way, I'll quilt it when it's done (by mid-week) and finish it in time for our DIL's birthday. I'll definitely share what I decide with you.

Enjoy your weekend, friends. I'm sure looking forward to mine!

  1. I think either of those runners would be a welcome addition to her collection.
    Enjoy your weekend and watching all those cute little corgi butts doing their thing.

    1. Hi MA-
      Thanks, dear. I haven't decided yet, if you can believe that! I can't wait to see my friend and her corgis. I sure hope they're cuddlers, because I'm severely low on Corgi cuddles. I plan to replenish my tank while we're together.
      Hugs,

  3. What ever you decide for a runner will be wonderful and greatly appreciated.
    Such a fun weekend you have coming up. Those low riders can really cover some
    ground. I also love the flyball competitions. Looking forward to photos.
    Enjoy the weekend.

    1. Hi Shirley-
      I've never been a spectator for either of these events and I can hardly wait. I think we'll have a great time. More on Monday...
      Hugs, girlfriend.
