It is Finished!

Well this was one of those projects that I couldn't put down until I finished it.LOL
So here is the finished table runner. This is my first time at popcorn flowers so I think I did pretty good. I chose just to keep it simple and I really like the finished touch.
Now I have to make some summer bowl fillers. I'm thinking of strawberries, watermelon and crows. See what you think.

yorkie's primitives said...: Popcorn flowers are fabric that you gather, pull together, stitch and put a button in the center. Old timers used to make popcorn quilts and this is basically the same thing. I will have a tute on here by this weekend, valerie; June 2, 2011 at 9:56 AM
Firecracker Kid said...: Well of course you did an excellent job of it hon:) I love the simplicity of it, but the flowers still make it a lil elegant:) Simple but elegant... I like that.

A Word of Thanks

First, I would like to say that I am computer illiterate and without the help of a few good friends, I would not have been able to have this blog.
I would like to thank Sage of Sagewood Farms for the many hours she spent teaching me how to open a blog.
I would also like to thank Brenda from Hattie's Workshop for the awesome banner that she made me.
I am grateful to Judy of Primfolks by Judy, Susan from Threadbare Primitives and Donna from Moonchild's Primitives for giving me permission to use the products that I have made from their patterns to display in my banner.
And lastly, I would like to thank all my friends from Prim Sister's Talk Radio Gathering Room who have had the patience to teach me what all the computer language means and for giving me ideas on primitive creating.
I have found that there are so many people in the primitive community that are willing to help beginners get started and for that I am very grateful. Thanks everone!
