New Finishes ....Old UFO's

At long last I finished my oldest UFO.
This candle wick cushion has been in
the works for a very long time.
 My guess is I started close to 20 years ago.
Found it while cleaning and I just knew there
was a fat 1/4 some where that would match.
So here it is all done and it even goes with my
living room decor.. who would of thought.
 Just in time for summer too.
                                                                             
I also finished this table runner for my daughter in law.
She loves sunflowers, so this UFO was perfect for
 the new kitchen she and my son just finished.
I started the center block last school year
from a print used in math class. Thought it
 was unique so I copied the print onto
 fabric to make a runner or wall hanging .
Never got any farther than the printer until now.  
I thought the prairie points fit well with the sunflower design. 
She was pleased with the effect.

  3. Your cushion looks great even if it was 20 years in the making and I love that table centre with its wonderful sunflowers.
