Soooo yesterday I literally spent all day and night on the computer following the storm trackers and weather radar.  We were very fortunate that nothing stronger than pea size hail came through here.  I watched wave after wave of storms roll past and the people who go out to chase them have to have nerves of steel.  I'm so thankful for them and their ability to stream live feeds to us sitting home watching.  It does bring a bit of comfort on a stormy day/night.

So today I figured I'd get back to my machine and the table runner and get it finished.  So .... all done!  This was a fun one to put together.  I may make another one day.  I can visualize it in a lot of different colorways.
But that is for another day.  Tonight I'm going to go get my Kindle and start reading The Hunger Games.

I love working with strips!  Or strings! Or whatever the correct label is today.  ((Must follow the "Rules"  you know because.... as many of us have come to realize lately...... there really are Quilt Police!   Or are they just the Keystone Cops?  I get the two confused.))     LOL

 Here is how far along I've gotten on my runner.  Strips are all cut and ready to just grab and sew.

Each section is then trimmed up and the next section is added and more strings sewn on side A.

This is the reverse side showing the black strips and the focus fabric of side B.

I'm lovin' it so far.  Back to play with more strips.

 I'm starting to get my mojo back after these last several weeks off ....so I thought I'd show you the fabrics I'll be working with for my next project.   One of the gals in our guild has shared how to make a table runner that combines string piecing and quilting as you go.  And these are the fabrics I'm going to use for mine.  I picked them all up Quilters Delight in Holdrege.  Love that store!!!
   "Reversible Table Runner" designed by Karen Montgomery and sold through The Quilt Company is a beautiful (and easy) pattern.

Believe me when I tell you these fabrics are MUCH richer than the pics show.

I actually missed the guild meeting (when a migraine hits I cancel everything) so I'm working on this on my own today.  Check back later to see how I'm getting along.
