The Polka Dotted Runner

The Polka Dotted Runner

This is the red and white polka dotted runner Judy made me for my birthday. It isn’t until next month, but she had it made. And I HAD to see it. Just look at the precious tassels!

I know it’s hard to see. I considered getting up on the step ladder, but was afraid I would be too clumsy in the steel boot and fall off. Judy would kill me. As she’s once again my driver.

You may be getting tired of my white pitchers. I never get tired of looking at them. Don’t they just “pop” against the polka dots? Oh, how I adore red and white polka dots!

The little pixie nisse (I think that’s what it’s called) is what Judy made me for my birthday last year. She’s an absolutely out of this world seamstress!

Having said that, Judy is having a giveaway. If you like this red and white polka dotted runner, you could win one just like it. Go over to Judy’s now and leave a comment. She also is giving away a vintage silver ladle with a bird’s nest in it. One comment can win you both over at her 20 North Ora blog. You can sign up every day until next Wednesday, when she will draw the winner.

Gosh, wish I could get up on something to give you a better look. Nope, not even going to think about it, so I don’t want a scolding, Judy. I only thought about it.

  23. I put my name in the hat for the table runner. Judy is such a sweet friend to you. Don’t you dare chance getting on a anything.
    My 6 year old granddaughter broke her ankle. Just a couple weeks ago she fell face first in a parking lot and chipped two teeth and had several cuts to her face and nose. She needs to slow down a little.
    You girls take care of those ankles.

  24. The runner looks perfect on your mantel, Brenda! That Judy can make just about anything! It’s so nice that you two are friends. Love those pitchers, too!

    XO,

  26. It makes the fireplace and your white pitchers. Judy did an excellent job- love the tassels – hope she gives a tutorial on this. I have several runners I have bought but not like this one. Thanks Judy. Hope your ankle gets better.

  27. Brenda, The runner is to die for, you house is so beautiful, talent! talent! talent! and Judy, how blessed you are to have her for a friend, don’t know her but through your blog, but she seems like she is a life rope for some one who thought they were drowning, God bless her and you.
