Regina Grewe is in finishing mode! She just finished this table runner using one of the border patterns from Aunt Millie’s Garden. She came up with the idea to split the background underneath the long vine. Very striking! Thank you for sharing, Regina!

Your TQS BOM is an extraordinary design! Although I’m a paper piecer at heart, I won’t be following along with this quilt. Appliqué simply appeals to me more at the moment, and I can’t do it all.

You are right—we can’t do it all. But we can do what we can. And, if the UFO pile is large, I suggest working on either the thing you love most or the thing that you can finish fastest. I don’t have many UFOs, but I recently made progress on the pile. I’ll write more on that later :-).

If you are interested in the Aunt Millie’s pattern, you can find it here. This border pattern is also in our book, 100 Whimsical Applique Designs. Happy stitching!
