Welcome to the studio, Dug.
Given that he's the one who uttered "Squirrel!" in the movie UP, it seemed only fitting that he join up with my studio squirrels.
(birthday present from younger son who gets my squirrel-y sense of humor)
I used the three extra columns from Candy Corn and turned them into a 15" x 70" runner for our dining room buffet as part of our October seasonal decor.
Quilted with Glide thread in Raven (deep purple) using closely spaced uneven wavy lines.
Candy Corn is now pin basted and the bobbins for Max are wound.
The goal is to get this one quilted and finished so it can be gifted during Sunday's family dinner.

This was my "big" birthday present from DH . . . I haven't even begun to figure out all the things it can do but I have managed to customize the screen photos using several of my own pictures.
One step at a time.

Yay, for Dug joining the quilt studio. Dug is absolutely perfect….especially on your new watch :-). Happy birthday!!
Love the candy corn with the purples fabric--great Fall runner, QDJulie.
We are in the path of this big Nor'Easter coming up the coastline; thankfully we have a generator but we are worried about the big, old --still in full leaf-- trees that surround our home on 3 sides...
Fingers crossed no issues...hugs, Julierose
Happy Birthday! Your family knows what you need to celebrate. Good luck on figuring out the features on the watch.
I am so jealous of your talent for picking color and fabric. You certainly have a gift.
Happy Birthday and i will keep admireing your creativity
Nice to meet Dug! Hope he can help direct your many squirrels so they remain helpful when you want them and quiet if you're busy!
Hugs!
Welcome, Dug, and happy birthday, Julie!!
