Do you ever set out to sew with a specific project in mind...only to work on something completely different? Yesterday I did not intend to make
this cute table runner from the
Moda Bake Shop. But I had been thinking about it for a while...and
Glace' seemed like it would be great for this pattern (I had originally intended on using
Patisserie but used my
Patisserie charm pack in another project).
I loved using the
Perfect Patchwork Templates for this pattern; I'll definitely be using these templates again. And...good news...shortly after I finished the center of my runner
Fat Quarter Shop announced that yardage of
Glace' is now available...so I can get the fabric I need for the borders and binding!
Not only was I side-tracked once yesterday...but twice! I started another project...I can only show a sneak peek...but I will tell you that I'm using a pattern designed by
Joanna Figueroa. Well...today I plan to work on projects on my list...unless I get side-tracked!

So much fun when we get sidetracked like this.. love the hexagon runner..:o))
I get side-tracked like that too, and I love it when that happens. Those patchwork templates look like quite a great tool. And I love your secret project too. Can't wait to see more!
Glad I'm not the only one who gets side-tracked. Sometimes it happens in the middle of a project too! Pretty tablerunner.
Getting sidetracked is all part of the fun ;o). LOVE your table runner, so pretty!!!
Hugs,
Joy :o)
Keep getting sidetracked if this is what you come up with. Love the Glace fabric.
How do you manage to just "whip" all these things out? And yes, as I sit here with 3 projects on my table, I get side tracked about every 5 minutes. I'm even glancing at a new pattern and thinking of just doing one block....
Wow, Sherri! Lots of fun going on over at your house! Looks like the good king of side-tracked to me. I love to see what you are working on. Always an inspiration!
i'm really loving all your projects!
This was a path worth taking even if you did get side tracked!! Where did you find the templates? I really like the runner and hope you show it when it's done! Cindy
wow! No moss growing on you I see! Great projects Sherri. You're living A Quilting LIfe for sure. :-)
I love those fabrics and all of your quilting inspiration, for sure! Thank you so much!

Getting side tracked is a really good thing. Just have fun!
wow - love the hexagons! your stuff is always so great...☺
I love what you've done while you were sidetracked...that hexagon runner is wonderful. Thanks for the template hint.
Very pretty things there, Sherri.
I know what your secret project is because I made the exact same 'thing'. Nope, I'm not going to spill the beans...no-sireee!
Love your projects....I am on a decorating kick...not much sewing going on here....soon!
I love your hexagons. I'm about to start my first hexagon quilt. And aren't four-patches fun? Side tracking is good!
This is soo familiar to me, Sherri! Looks like a fun project, though love the Glace! Hee, hee - I think several of us are making identical swap gifts!
Cheers!
You certainly did a nice job piecing your hex table runner. The fabrics look so good. I do get side tracked at times, too.
Love the table runner. I really am liking that new Glace fabric. I bought a few charm packs. I get side tracked all the time! Just too many beautiful fabrics & wonderful patterns to choose from, it's sometimes hard to stay focused on just one project. Have a great week-end!

Where do all these quilts come from? You're a one-woman quilt factory! Love the table runner. The Glace' fabric is wonderful. Can't wait to see the rest of your secret project!
V. here... The hexagons are gorgeous. I was just looking at the patchwork templates today and thinking "I've got to finish something, before I start another project!!" (I didn't get them, but they are on my list) Seeing your project is almost as good as doing it myself!! Thanks for getting side tracked so I didn't have to. v.
Wow Sherri...very nice projects...sidetracked that is good, unless you have a deadline...
Getting side tracked is common place for a quilter, isn't it? Happens here all the time. But if you are going to get side tracked what a great way to do it! Your projects are fantastic. Don't you just love Marti Michell's templates? They are fantastic. I put InvisiGrip on the bottom so they don't slide when cutting.
It's time for me to get sidetracked back into quilting!!! Yours look great!
Sherri, you are such a busy girl! And I see you are having lots of fun! Love your projects... Your sneak preview has my interest???
I thought that was normal, lol I do it quite often, as long as you are having fun.
This is really sweet. The runner is lovely. That sounds like my life. I started out to do something but mid way changed my mind.
I love that table runner. I saw that moda tutorial when it came out and I've been thinking about it. Your post has made me want to try it even more!
