Your table runners all look fab :thumbup: . Sounds like you all had a lot of fun too, Thankyou so much to Debbie and Mimi for making it happen :P . Am going to try and make the Tuesday class, will have to use a substitute for the cotton batt tho, so that should be interesting :lol: . Am thinking of using an old blanket, will hold it's shape well, be easy to sew thru several layers and has been washed a million times so won't shrink, I think poly batt might be a little puffy for this project, what do you think.

I think that would work well ShellyQ. Even flannel washed several times would make a wonderful batting. Hope you make the tuesday class.

I like yours too, Ruth. Am going to make a Xmas one also and only use the two fabrics. Wish I would have thought of that!! Took me awhile trying to find scraps to use. :evil:

I used poly batting, I was very careful to only touch down on the fabric and did not set my iron on as hot as usual. I had a half yard of red, and a half of the green. Then a half yard for back. I used some solid green strips for binding. I made binding by cutting strips one and a half inches. I pressed under a quarter inch on one side. I sewed the raw edge side to the back then flipped it over and sewed it down on front :D This was a fun project, good for all experience levels. I can't wait to see what is next. :D

These are all wonderful! I'm going to have to go back and re-look at my strips of scraps and see what I can come up with. I want to do them all. I had made up my mind but after looking at everyone's beautiful table runners I am more indecisive than ever!!! Fall? Spring? Christmas? Pastel or brights? HELP!! :shock:
