Last week's project, the Snowmen Tablerunner, has progressed to a finished top and is in the process of being machine quilted. Here's a peek!
So that meant I needed something new to work on each evening during my hand stitching time. I decided to pull out a hand-pieced doll quilt I was working on earlier this year. Maybe you remember it? A 30s Playtime mini charm pack and some Kona solids.
I got it layered and basted and have been quilting a diagonal grid using white DMC perle cotton #12.
The perle cotton is giving lots of nice texture to this little quilt! It measures about 21 inches square. A little more quilting and I'll need to figure out something for the binding!

So pretty! Hand quilting gives a quilt such delicious bumpy texture.
Your snowmen table runner is so cute! There is something so satisfying about handwork.

Your table runner looks fabulous! I love this little 30s quilt! Have a wonderful day!
I am impressed with how beautifyl is your hand quilting. I really need to try this, have never hand quilting anything.
Thank you for the peek at your snowmen runner - it's so cute! I do remember that doll quilt and love how the perle white is looking on it.
Lovely hand quilted texture on your little quilt! The snowman runner looks great and will soon be out on display.
Sweet. Your diagonal quilting adds a nice dimension to the piece.
Wow! You got a lot done during your hand-stitching time. The cross hatch quilting is perfect for it. Love the 30's prints.
the snowmen are cute and the table runner so colorful guaranteed to cheer up any one of the cloudiest days.
Your Snowmen are just adorable; nice work. and that dolly quilt is such fun--so bright and cheerful...hugs in my winter coat..brrrr cold here Julierose
Great projects. Love the snowmen!
That Snowman Table Runner is so cute!
Love those sweet snowman, Diann!!! Enjoy your slow stitching today.
Both projects are so fun. Love those bright colors in the doll quilt!
Don't you just love the texture hand quilting gives a piece. So soft and comfy. Yes, I think I do remember your piece because it reminded me of Farmer's Wife which was done with 30's fabrics. So pretty.
Love the table runner and the quilt! So much eye candy!
Love the diagonal hand quilting on the little doll quilt. There are such sweet fabrics in this pretty quilt. Those snowmen look cute all joined together.
There's nothing like those hand quilted stitches to bring a project alive
Very sweet little doll quilt! Would make a cute mini wall hanging too!
I love your snowmen! What a sweet runner that will be!
And I'm always a sucker for 4-patches. Love the bright colors you've used - such a happy doll quilt!
Such a sweet top. I planned to grab yarn and cast on a shawl for Slow Stitching, but spent the day moving furniture and quilting! And now my aching body says no way can I hold knitting needles. LOL.
What a fun table runner with those cute snowmen!
Your hand stitching on the doll quilt is fabulous, and I love the fabrics you’ve used too!
Hugs,

Your quilting on that little quilt is amazing. Such a great little quilt just from playing with some scraps.
A very sweet little quilt. The hand quilting looks great. You've been motoring along on projects this year.
