I have decided that, if i want to make treads for the stairs, I need to be more efficient as well. I will gather up darker colors and make 3 boxes, then strip the wool, sew the ends together, then braid. I think it will go faster that way, than making it as I go.
When I finished the pad, I worked on a new piece. Yes, a new piece, and I know I have others to finish;)
I saw this piece in a 2001 issue of BHG quilt magazine and just had to try it. Of course I am doing it my way and changing things around, but it is basically the same. This is what I have so far and you can guess what else goes into the picture;)

Beautiful chair pad and quilt Debbie! You amaze me what all you get done.
You always amaze me with how much wonderment you create! :)
Love both your projects. I'm curious to see what "new" artform you come up with in the New Year.
Great chairpad - Hmmm, could it be a kitty in the new piece? I don't envy Bill working on those stairs! Happy New Year!
