I've just had a huge weekend at work, working 5 shifts in three days. Phew, looking forward to a rest. While you were all settling in for your FNWF, I was off to work.
Before my work marathon started on Friday I was busy in my wee room again. Whilst hunting for the border fabric for my Jelly Roll Race, I came across these pretty leftovers from a Moda Frivol tin. Sew I quickly put them together to make this table runner.
I have quite a few runners now, all made from scraps and leftovers. It's a good way of preventing the scrap bin from filling quite so fast! LOL
As you see, it's not layered or quilted yet. I'll get to that one day.

Next up I pulled out a kit I purchased last year.
There are some very pretty fabrics in the kit.
I managed to press all of the browns and even made the first few cuts before I went in to work on Friday.
It's calling out to me today and I really want to go play with those lovely fabrics, but I must get on and make some more progress on my Christmas Ornaments, I have still not completed March!
So I think that will be my day today. Feet up, David Attenborough on the TV, ornament in hand. A nice way to recover from my marathon of work.
I hope your weekend was more relaxing than mine.

You make me tired just reading about your weekend of work. I hope you have a couple of days down time now. Your new quilt looks fun.
There is not much better than a relaxing evening watching the tube with hand work.
You certainly have had a busy time at work. I'm sure you enjoyed your stitching time once you were home again.
