Virtual Christmas Cookie Exchange 2024

This table runner is from a pattern titled Santa Surprise by Disa Designs. The website is no longer online, and the pattern was actually quite difficult to locate. {Especially not knowing the pattern's title}. Searching with the image got the results, eventually. The Santas and trees are machine zig-zagged appliqués. The runner was lenghtened by adding a few extra horizintal background strips. 'Wanted to make this runner for a really long time. Here are this table runner's stats:

♦ dimensions: 16.50" X 50" {before washing and drying}

♦ fabrics: 100% cotton fabrics, mostly from my stash

♦ backing: 100% cotton red print fabric

♦ batting: Warm N' Natural©

♦ quilting: machine-stitched free motion meandering and zig-zagged machine appliquéing with matching thread colors

♦ binding: 100% cotton fabric, solid dark green, machine and hand-stitched

♥ Completed WIP/UFO quilts in 2024: 10 ♥

Here is a {box} cheesecake that I often make for the holidays. This one was made a few years ago, and was enjoyed by all. It featured a whipped cream topping with green, red and white sprinkles.

A wonderful Christmas runner. You are so talented! Plus even though a box mix, your cheesecake looked wonderful. I have done the cherry cheesecake boxed mixes before and they were good. Janice

Danice, I love that table runner! The fabrics are perfect for it. That cheesecake sure looks good! Also, thanks for your comments on my blog. For some reason, for this post, all comments have come through as "no reply" so I can't respond directly. Quirks of the internet, I guess. Merry Christmas!
