A Little Progress

I’ve been busy over the last week. First, my Spring table runner.

Spring Fling Table Runner

It is progressing nicely. I’m actually ready to quilt it. However the quilting has been put on hold while I work another project. What another project? Yep. I finally got around to priming my chairs. See the beautiful before and after picture.

Primed Chairs

I’ve been working on these chairs for over eight years. My grandma gave them to my shortly after we got married. They were covered in multiple layers of paint. I stripped off the paint and sanded them. Then we just used them. I decided it was time to finally paint them. On Saturday, I applied the first coat of primer. I’ll sand again this week and apply an additional coat of prime. Then they should be ready to paint. I can’t believe I’m actually going to finish this project.

Don’t worry, I’ll get back to the table runner. I really don’t like painting that much.

  • Nice new banner! I love the dragonflies.

    Congrats on getting to your chairs!

  • The table runner looks wonderfully spring-like and with new chairs to match it will all be fantastic (and worth the 8 year UFO!)
