Tablerunners finished!

Last night when I got home I was bound and determined to get the tablerunners finished. I had two left to pin, so I did that while I waited for Paul to come home. We had leftover chili from the night before, so I didn't have to cook. Then while I was sewing down the bindings, Paul did his taxes, so we got to spend time together in the end. I got them all sewn down when he got finished, so we went upstairs and watched the end of Forrest Gump while I trimmed all the threads. I am so excited that they are done. I chatted online with my mom while I was reading blogs last night and we decided the big goal for Feb. is to get the landscape quilt done for the church banner. This is the one I am scared about, so it could be a long month!
Today I decorated my cubicle for February. Valentine's is my favorite holiday as it is also my birthday, so I look forward to it all year. I have five tablerunners/wall hangings that I put up. This year we are going to Engaged Encounter weekend over my birthday weekend, so nothing fun planned. I've been hinting around that I want new boots or an MP3 player. We'll see what Paul comes up with this year.
