Here is the table runner I made for my best friend. We met in May, 1969, through riding horses. She still has horses, and longhorn cattle, and lives on 200 acres near Abilene, TX. Her home was built in 1910 by her great uncle, and she has a decidely western themed home. I found the center panel in my late mom's sewing box about 8 years ago and knew then it was destined for my friend's house. I just didn't know what form it would take. I found the chevron table runner pattern and knew immediately it was perfect for the cowboy panel. All the fabric in it was from my stash, and the light denim was from my old jeans I wore out when I rode my Harley to Yellowstone in 2011 and 2012. I practiced FMQ on scraps as I read on this site, and then jumped in and did that for the center panel of this runner. I think I figured out it used about 0.67 yards of stash fabric. Now to get out there to deliver it...
