Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge – April Update

For the Chookshed Stitchers challenge in April, the number 9 was drawn. My number 9 is to make a table runner.

You can see my project list here.

I decided to make a table runner using the Golden Peaks block. Julie Cefalu, of The Crafty Quilter, shared a great tutorial of this block.

The block is versatile and fun to play with.

I like every layout that I tried, but I did finally choose one.

The blocks are sewn together, and pinned into a quilt sandwich waiting for quilting.

Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge – April

I joined up with the Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge for the motivation to move projects forward, and perhaps even finish a few. So far, so good!

Participants publicly posted a list of 10 numbered projects. Each month a number is drawn, and the corresponding project is worked on. There are linkups where projects can be posted and participants can cheer one another on.

In March, number 4 was drawn. My number 4 was to sew pajama bottoms, and you can see that I did that by clicking here for my post that shows that I completed this project.

For April, the number 9 was drawn. My number 9 is to make a table runner. You can see my project list here.

I am thinking about making the Golden Peaks block into a table runner. Julie Cefalu, of The Crafty Quilter, shared a great tutorial of this block, and it looks like fun to play with.

Besides yard work, and other life distractions, I have been working on the 365 Monster.

Just so ya know.
