    I've seen the same fabric as yours done with the 10 minute table runner. Makes a nice one.

    Klaws that fabric is really beautiful. I am a new quilter too, and spend a lot of time trying to figure out these type of things. I am making my aunt a table runner, and have three large squares with strips of different patterns sewn together between them, and she likes white, but white wouldn't work in mine so I am using a cream color for the back and around the edges.

    The french braid is pretty.

    nhnative those are really pretty table runners. I think fabric like that would also be pretty with the second one.

    Such pretty table runners. I think they are good for me too in learning to improve my quilting skills.

    I like Duncan's pattern especially if you are new to quilting. I would choose a little lighter of a rust (maybe a peach) or a softer lighter green. Good Luck !!

    I used that fabric to make a simple wall hanging and a small table runner. A very quick project that let the fabric speak for itself.

    Those came out really nice. The grape fabric sets it off nicely.

    This fabric is too pretty to break up. Try a ten miniute table runner with it using either of the darks for the lining. I would like the red/rust on the right if it were mine. froggyintexas
