omg it is just too cute

Jenny from MSQC does one called the Zig Zag table runner with charm packs that you might be able to adapt. Hopefully someone recognizes the picture and can give you the pattern name.

Here you go. It's called Accent Your Focus Table Runner.

This board never ceases to amaze me. It's wonderful to have such a wealth of knowledge in one place.

If someone finds this in a free version would you please share with us. I really like this & it looks easy enough but, I need the instructions to make. I'm not a good DIY'er. I also, can't see paying $8.00 for the pattern. But, that's just me.

mighty 09-30-2013 07:12 AM

I love it, thank you Peckish for the link!

Rubesgirl 09-30-2013 08:28 AM

That is beautiful and it would showcase a fabric I have. I will watch and hope that someone can find something like it that is free, or at least less than $8.00.

From what I can see there are lots of partial seams in there.

Table runner design
 
It looks like a log cabin around the focus fabric, perhaps courthouse steps? I'd use a 6" or 8" square and add 2" strips around. I'd make 4 of these and cut one into 1/4's to create the small insets. Actually, there are 4 patches used to connect the 3 major 'squares' so this would need to be accounted for on two sides of each of the major squares. I don't have the photo of the pattern up as I write this so I hope this provides enough info to go on. Might be an experiment but hopefully it'll work!

quiltingloulou 09-30-2013 11:31 AM

This is absolutely gorgeous.

quiltingloulou 09-30-2013 11:35 AM

I think Laynak has it right. Going to try this one ad hoc.

Tiggersmom 09-30-2013 01:22 PM

I've got EQ6 so might try my hand at designing one in that.;) I did notice it does Not have binding on the edges but is pillow turned so that would make it much faster to finish.

twinkie 10-01-2013 02:46 AM

It sure is very pretty.

JaniceP 10-01-2013 05:08 AM

I had never seen that one before...thanks for posting the picture and thanks to the person with the link.

BellaBoo 10-01-2013 05:20 AM

Just make five blocks and layer three on top of two. That's the easy way I'd do it.

BettyGee 10-01-2013 06:35 AM

Thank you Peckish for the link. I had totally forgotten about Quilter's Warehouse. That was probably a good thing as I just found some patterns that I just cannot live without. Hey I worked hard, I'm retired and quilting is my passion.

QandE2010 10-01-2013 07:27 AM

That will make a really pretty table runner.

I think it would be very easy to do and with no partial seams. Just sew a small block onto the large ones for top/bottom blocks, then follow picture for the middle. Then sew the 3 'rows' together.
You would use your favorite method to make the blocks, it would not have to be exactly the same but your version of it.

SEW 10-01-2013 07:43 AM

You ladies are awesome! Thanks Peckish for posting the link!

My time 10-01-2013 07:46 PM

Are you sure you need a pattern? I may not be the sharpest tack in the box but even I could figure this pattern out.

BETTY62 10-01-2013 07:59 PM

Well, I'm an antique tack so I need all the help I can get. It's a beautiful runner and I have added it to my to do list. Thanks for posting the picture.

Perhaps then, you will post all the directions and measurements ... many here still need the help in dissecting a pattern, so being that you are so capable, you would be thrilled to show your expertise!

DonnaPBradshaw 10-01-2013 08:12 PM

What a cute table runner! it almost makes me want to make it!

QuiltnNan 10-02-2013 09:22 AM

it's a great runner!

wildyard 10-02-2013 11:53 AM

Here is my take on how to do it: And I would make it reversible if it were me. For each side, Make 4 blocks the same size, based on how large you want your finished table runner. I would probably go for 15" to 20". For 15" finished blocks: Cut focus center squares 7.5", need 4. First edging, cut 2.5" x 7.5", need 8. Next side, 2.5" x 11.5", need 8. Second edging: Cut 2.5" x 11.5", need 8. Next side, 2.5" x 15.5", need 8. Carefully cut the 4th square into quarters. Lay out the blocks as in the photo, and sew the quarter blocks to the whole blocks in rows as per layout. then sew the rows together. Repeat above for the back, making sure you lay it out to match the reverse side of the first one.
You can now stitch right sides together, leaving a space for turning, or cut and add a binding. If you feel confident of your narrow edge seam, you can press under (and glue if desired) your outside seams and topstitch the two layers together. A decorative stitch would be nice to use in this case.
I think I have triple checked my math, but sometimes the fibro helps me make the same mistakes over and over. I suggest you do the math for yourself before cutting.
Start with the finished size you desire, subtract the edging widths you desire x2 for each row of edging as there is edging on each side of the block. Use the finished size for these math problems, but don't forget to add in the 1/2" seam allowance before actually cutting. (for instance, I used 2" edging in the math, but cut at 2.5").
After subtracting the edgings, that leaves you with the size of your center square (plus 1/2" seam allowance).
I hope this has been helpful to someone. I love this table runner and it looks much more complex than it actually seems to be on closer inspection.

SEW 10-02-2013 01:41 PM

Thank you Wildyard for your detailed instructions. Think I will give it a go!

Rubesgirl 10-02-2013 02:08 PM

Thanks for the dimensions and directions, Wildyard. I would never have figured this one out on my own. Now I can make it. :)

Thank you Tigermum. Your comment. On how the binding was done has helped me as I could not work it out. I never think about bagging out always putting binding on.

Hayley May 10-20-2013 05:56 PM

I love the fabrics that were chosen for my design. Thank you to all who have purchased my pattern. I have been designing patterns for over 9 years. I am always honored when someone who chooses one of my pattern.

gerken 10-26-2013 02:34 AM

Good Morning! I just love this table runner pattern and with the help of those that contributed to this thread I was able to purchase the pattern. In the beginning of the pattern emphasis was put on a scant 1/4 of an inch. Since this is not a strong point of my quilting, I was wondering if anyone had a problem with accuracy? I just don't want to start something and get discouraged. Thanks you for locating this pattern and any suggestions and help

Hayley May - so this is your design for sale on the aforementioned website? How cool! Do you have other designs on there also?

modestou 01-10-2015 11:03 AM

Does anyone know the name of floral print fabric in this table runner and the manufacturer name? I'd love to purchase this fabric if it is still available. Thanks!

I love your pattern and fabric choice and have added that pattern (and several others) since I am not good at math and doing things without directions. Keep designing and let us know if you have more and where to get them.

I too am looking for the instructions for table runner accent your focus - don't mind paying $8.00 but shipping to uk is far to expensive

GrammaNan 01-13-2015 06:14 PM

I think I will come up with the $8.00 and buy the pattern. I believe in paying the designer, it is how they make their living. <3

SusanSusan33 01-14-2015 07:48 AM

What a pretty table runner! I don't know if I am up for buying the pattern (and I'm sucha visual learner can't go by written only instructions). It's now in my wish list!! :)

Bobblehead 08-31-2015 05:48 PM
