anybody else got a weakness for ticking?


just can't resist ticking - it has that old fashioned grandma-ish appeal to it



you know, like in "Grandma's featherbed"

for this runner i used red ticking rather than the traditional blue



it just seemed right for the fall and Christmas season

i love the way the ends fray

I love ticking, too. I had a green ticking stripe kitchen curtain for so long, I just couldn't part with it. Your table runner is SO cute. Great job!

Very pretty Tracie! I just finished doing a pink pillow with pink ticking as the ruffle.

Love it.

So great, I love ticking, especially vintage but it can get pricey. I bought a vintage ticking pillow at an antique shop a long time ago and it's still one of my favorite things!
