Grace’s Bed Runner

Is complete!  This is my October finish with A Lovely Year of Finishes.  I’m so glad I found this blog, as I find a goal or a deadline really helps me to complete projects.

 

My colleague Grace asked me to make a bed runner for her a very long time ago, she wanted it in bright colours with her name on it. Here is my interpretation of what she wanted.

Grace's Bed Runner

Grace and I work in a Library and I think the bright bands almost look like books on a shelf.

Some custom quilting.

Staying with the library (words) theme, I used a white on white text fabric for the back of the quilt.

I hope she likes it, I’ll bring it to her when I return from the InternationalQuilt Festival in Houston.  If this is not what Grace had in mind, my husband is waiting in line, he likes this lively little quilt, I guess we could all use a little Grace.

Please take a moment to stop by A Lovely Year of Finishes and see what others have completed this month.

I will hold myself to a standard of grace, not perfection.
