PRAIRIE POINT TABLE RUNNER

When I purchased the kit for this runner last year I was just learning how to quilt. It got set aside while I practiced making different projects and tried my hand at FMQ.  I finally had the chance to open it up a couple of days ago and I have to say that it was so much fun to do.  It uses 36 charm squares (this one was Lilac Hill from Moda), some yardage for the backing (cute bird print) and 18 assorted buttons. Everything was included in the kit (it was good that I waited to try it because the pattern was a bit confusing...I think the LQS I purchased it from just assumed everyone would know what to do and left out some important info). I loved making the prairie points and definitely plan to add some to other projects as a fun touch. Hand sewing all those buttons on seemed to take as long as it did to create the runner...good thing there were some interesting shows on tv last night :o)
