    I like the idea of it being dual duty!!! Pieced on both sides would be awesome :D :D D:

    That's a great idea! I need to make a gift for DH to give to someone at work, this is a good one. Thanks!

    I have one. It's a pieced Thanksgiving runner - turkeys, pumpkins, autumn colors on one side and then a festive Christmas fabric on the other side.

    I made the same pattern for front and back and did the different seasons to make reversible. Here is the link if you would like to look at them http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-21060-1.htm

    Not a table runner, but years ago my sister made me a reversible apron w/ Thanksgiving one side and Christmas on the other. It's great. And, like you said, I hang it in my kitchen at Thanksgiving, then flip it over and keep it hung throught the Christmas season.

    Talk to my kids, nieces and nephews...I made them all reversible ones and working on 8 more now for the grandkids. Some have birthday on one side, the other some other special thing they enjoy, Halloween and Thanksgiving, Christmas reverses to winter scapes and so on...everyone loves them and they make wonderful gifts whether it is a runner or set of place mats. Go for it.

    I just made a table runner with thanksgiving on one side and christmas on the other. It is pieced, and I quilted it with SID, but I found it hard to get the quilting even on both sides. Any suggestions. Except for the quilting part, it turned out really cute. I used a binding that matched both sides.
