i would suggest this also. i made one in christmas fabrics without batting and decorated the seams with red rickrack.
I like the 10 minute table runner. I did not put batting in them and I did not "quilt" mine. http://www.quiltingboard.com/tutoria...er-t77376.html

I think you are sweet and people like you make the holidays truly meaningful. That said, I like the one already mentioned here from the quiltbug. You could chain piece them and use in the center square a holiday scenic print if you so choose. As another stated great time to shop for fabric with all the sales.

use white on white fabric and steam a seam.... mount, cut any 'snowflake' (like we did in school) and then iron onto any color background you like...the steam a seam will help with the opacity and then you can just iron on, FMQ around the outside and done.... more cutting than sewing, UNLESS you want to find someone (or a store that rents) in your area with one of those cutting machines...i'm sure they have snowflakes...

I love the 10 minute table runners. I have made quite a few and love figuring the color combo's. quick and easy. I don't use batting or quilt. I do starch when I do my final pressing (Mary Ellen's Best Press);
