Almost Unfinished Unpacking

I've been doing a little more unpacking.  I found some things that are finished or are nearly finished.

This first quilt called A Distant Star was published in the Dear Hannah book by Brenda Papadakis.  I'm on page 35!

Here's a Halloween quilt that is almost finished.  I just need to do a little more quilting in the border and add the binding.  

Here's a close up of the center.  The pattern is from Sentimental Stitches.  I did echo quilting around the redwork center and the pinwheel blocks are quilted in a curvy straight line.  I set my Bernina to stitch number 4 (a zig zag), and my stitch width to 4 and stitch length 3.5.  That sews a soft curve instead of doing a stitch in the ditch quilting line.  

Here's a table runner from a class I took years and years ago.  The strips are woven with fabric that we sewed into tubes and then pressed.  I think it is too long to be a table runner, but I have no idea how to take it apart to make it smaller.  So I did a basting stitch around the edges.  I should add a border, but the runner is thick so don't know whether to put some batting or flannel in the border.  This is a UFO that I'm not sure really how to finish.  I may just add a binding and call it finished.

This is one of Carol Doak's patterns.  It is from the book Easy Stash Quilts.  

As I was folding it, I noticed this nick in the binding so I put it in the UFO category.  You can see it in the photo above at the bottom almost in the center.  Here is a closer look.  That fabric is old, and I don't have any more of it.  So I will probably take this binding off and use another fabric.  Then that one will be finished.  

Thanks for stopping by!

I hope you have some time to take a few stitches today.
