Accident table runner
 
1 Attachment(s)
This was supposed to have 3 blocks,,,the third block I accidently dropped and ran over with my wheel chair,making rubber marks on it.I didn't have fabric for another,so I cut one in half. I kind of liked it so I may even make a Christmas one!

Very pretty! I love how you figured it out-I wouldn't of thought of it!!

That is very pretty! Amazing how different situations can change an idea! And you're right! I can see a Christmas runner also.

Necessity is the mother of invention! You did a great job. I'd say you right brain is working very well!! Now let us see that Christmas runner.

Very pretty and creative in the process, even if accidentally done. Probably several patterns are accidents if we only knew it.

ube quilting 10-28-2013 12:44 PM

Among the long list of attributes quilters have, being creative problem solvers is right at the top the list. I really like the way it turned out. You go girl!:D
peace

Camille 10-28-2013 12:56 PM

Very nice and clever of you to think of splitting one block.

BrendaK 10-28-2013 01:44 PM

It turned out beautiful. BrendaK

psumom 10-28-2013 02:52 PM

I like it too!

Jackie Spencer 10-28-2013 03:29 PM

Could'nt have turned out better if you had planned it!! I love it! You just created your own pattern.

paintmejudy 10-28-2013 03:46 PM

Excellant save! I think it looks great, like it was polanned that way.

Peggy Jeanne 10-28-2013 04:50 PM
