Wow! That is beautiful! I am interested in knowing what pattern it is, also!

Yea! You did find it, thank you! Looks like there are other gorgeous patterns in that book as well.

Wow! Thanks for the picture and for the link. That is absolutely beautiful!
|
Such a rich resource of quilters here. I love seeing the pictures from that book. I will have to check it out. Thanks for sharing.
|
I did this runner a few years ago. The squares are fused to the batting and then the gold strips are top stiched in place. Fussy to do but very beautiful when done.
|
Thanks MisDixie. Did you think it was difficult to do?

That's awesome. I love it.
|
I wonder when there is something that gorgeous on the Board, how many of us log on and buy it?? I did.
|
I have the kit but never made it.........I have many UFO's in kits .........enough to last for years.
I seen it made by another quilter and she put the gold on with a double needle and it came out beautiful. It is gorgeous when it is done. I'm going to go look for it!!! Been making runners for Christmas but forgot I had this.........thanks for reminding me. |
We did a workshop in guild using the gold narrow bias binding. Some used silver. Some used the fusible binding and some used a double needle to sew it. We made a lot of blocks look stained glass using the gold, silver or black narrow binding. The binding lays flat, the piping won't.
|
I was going to tell you about this book. I ordered it two years ago from Amazon. Love it.

I just bought this book. I've wanted a table runner for different holidays and never found one I liked enough to make. This could easily be changed for different holidays. Now to tell the mailman to hurry:)

My question on the fusible bias tape. There seems to be two sizes. Which have you used? |
Oh my gosh, I went to this website and got lost and almost forgot to come back. Lost in a good way! Very interesting blog! Ordered the book. I looked at Amazon for it and they wanted $65!! Sure hope she has it. The website took my credit card, so I am hopeful. Love that table runner!
|
You ladies get me in sooo much trouble!! Did you hear the heavy sigh - waiting for the mail carrier - gotta beat my DH to the box!
|
Love this table runner!! I checked Amazon, and even E Bay and well Amazon was way over priced (very surprising) and E bay did not even have one. Now just have to decide if I will ever really use it or will it just be a nice addition to my books!!!
|
I wouldn't say difficult Dee Dee, just a construction method I wouldn't normally use. With the squares fused to the batting I found some movement of them. Thats where the 'fussy' part came in. Making sure the gold bias covered the edges when stiching down.

They also have a pattern for a fall table runner with pumpkin and gourds. It is in the book entitled "Indian Summer" by Brenda Henning and published by Bear Paw Productions. Same stained-glass technique.
I have made both and actually like the fall runner better. I would show a picture but they are long ago gifted and I didn't take pictures. |
They also have a kit to make that table runner...just go to the 'shop' tab. It is beautiful though.
|
That is just beautiful...

I looked for the book on Amazon and was dumbfounded at what they want for it
|
Amazon doesn't have it, it is from a third party selling the book on Amazon. Third parties set their own price. I found it on clearance at an online independent book shop. I got the only one they had for $7 and $4 shipping. It really saves money to search online shops.
|
I ordered the book also
|
Hi Lee, I did a quick search for the Hot Ribbon and it looks like it's 1/8" ribbon. It would depend on the width of the ribbon.
The clover bias is 1/4". I found the 1/4 'fussy'...however I do like the idea of the double needle. And if memory is correct after I got it done some one in our quilting group here said 'did ya use a double needle?' yep the duh moment.

Do you think that "Hot Ribbon Iron-On Applique" product would work for the outlining? I bought some at a quilt show but haven't tried using it yet.
|
Yep, I got mine as a kit back in the day. For $36.00 on sale at a 'southern' quilt shop. Got back up north and my local shop was selling them for $33.00. Since then the price of fabric has gone up and up along with the binding.

And I need to say these patterns are all just stunning! I have seen the tablerunners, pumpkin and christmas, stockings and the angle along with the tree skirts done. Love them all.
|
I'm with you Amythyst. I see something I love and buy it, but there are so many of those that it just becomes a book or pattern in my collection because I never have enough time to make them. :(

Wow! I wish I could find it for that price! Or even the magazine with the pattern.
