Rob Peter to Pay Paul Quilt Runner
I finished this Quilt Runner (aka, Bed Runner) for my Neice's wedding in October
(final threads snipped 2 days before it flew to Colorado Springs!)
Not only did this combine 2 pretty "dotted" fabrics, I found the backing fabric "after the fact" and bought all they
had left. When I was laying out the top, I realized I needed not quite a half yard more! So I hit the "stash" and
did a little creative piecing. Then onto the Flynn quilt frame and started my FIRST Free-Motion Quilting project.
I am either Brave or Crazy or some combination of both! I can see the boo-boo's, but I'm still proud of the
finished product.
Finished size, approx. 38" x 88" (yes, it's bigger than my plan!)
