I'm sewing!

It was very nice to get home to my sewingroom after our vacation!  There are so many projects I want to sew at the moment, so I started two last week... ( well one last week and one this week...)  I need some handsewing to bring to the shop with me during the day, then I can spend some time in my sewingroom in the evenings ( although I really should be outside and enjoy our lovely summer weather....)

This is from the project I started this week.  A tabletopper from the Chantilly pattern from "Sew Emma".  We have the pattern at the shop, so I wanted to make a sample for the big Quiltfestival at Gardermoen in September.  We have a booth there, so I'll be busy sewing samples for the next couple of months- I LOVE my job!!

Here is the top finished, now I need to decide how to quilt it....

I also finished a tablerunner and a small tablemat which need to be quilted.  So guess what I am doing this weekend....  At least I hope to get them basted.  
Hope your week was nice!  Thank you for stopping by!
