Christmas Fair Collection 2022

One of the quilt guilds that I belong to participates in an annual Christmas fair, selling handcrafted items made and donated by guild members. The event is one of the primary fundraisers for the guild, and as a new member, I was determined to contribute to the cause. I finished my last item two days ago, this tablerunner made from a border-stripe fabric.

Christmas tablerunner, 17" x 46"

My husband is a retired musician, a french horn player, who bought a large piece of this fabric for me several years ago. We have a Christmas tree skirt and a tablerunner from it that we use each year, so I was happy to use some of the remaining fabric for this donation.


Yesterday was our monthly guild meeting and the time to turn in our items for the fair. I decided to get a photo of my whole collection before donating them. The lighting wasn't great, but at least I have a record of everything together.


I've shared photos and info about the rest of these items in earlier blog posts. You can read about the placemats, the potholders and ornaments, and the Scandinavian Star ornaments, all in separate posts.

For anyone in the Atlanta area interested in visiting the Christmas Arts and Crafts Market, it is held at the Coweta County fairgrounds, November 4th - 6th. Admission is free. More information is available HERE.
