Very pretty, I love the creams in the center part used in conjunction with the wonderful blocks.

I love your tablerunner ...wish I could get moving on my Christmas stuff....all I seem to do is read the QB and get more ideas (that I will never finish!!!!!!!) I am soooooo bad. Welcome to the Board Lois!!!

Stunning! Welcome to the board. I love the shading, and just everything about it.

Welcome to the Board and your table runner is beautiful.

Welcome to the board. Your table runner is beautiful! :)

Absolutely gorgeous tablerunner. Very striking

beautiful. Love your colors

The design and shaded cream center with the red and green stars at the end gives such an elegant touch to your table. Very pretty.

Welcome to the board. Hope to see you again with more of you wonderful works.
this table runner is beautiful.

P.S. I too would like the name of the pattern if you used one. Thanks for sharing you beautiful work with us.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing.

I think the different white strips are really elegant in this runner! Nicely done!

There is a pattern, kind of, in a book, but the book's at home and I'm at work. I can post the name later tonight, but I think it could be made easily without a pattern.

I found a block that looked like a poinsettia, but you can use any 10 or 12 inch block that you can set on point. The 12 inch block makes a pretty wide runner, so unless your table is quite large, I'd go with the 10 inch. The cream-colored strips are 1.5", 2" and 2.5" wide and can be cut from the width of various fabrics. Mine were left-overs from a tree skirt I had made. You piece them on alternating sides of the block like a log cabin until you get the length you want on the outside edge. Then you trim them the same diagonal width as the block and across them for the center seam of the runner. The border was 3.5" wide, as I remember.

I'll try to remember to post the name of the book and the name of the block I used tonight. I bought it about 5 or 6 years ago, but maybe it's still available. Thank you all again for your kind comments.

Love your quilt and will be looking forward to the pattern. Thank you for sharing and welcome to the board!

very nice runner

Welcome Loisf and Fabric Heaven from Northern California. The runner is just lovely. I also am doing table runners for Christmas and I believe that I have my new pattern, (hope you don't mind). Thanks for sharing.

Fabric Heaven look forward to seeing your quilt when it's finished. BrendaK

Love it!!!

It's beautiful. Nice work.

very pretty I like how you did the middle part

That is so pretty especially with the different off white strips and the fussy cut cardinal block in the center of the star.

Very elegant. Nice job.

REALLY like your choice of color/fabric for the middle of your table runner.
Very nice. Bet it makes you smile each time you look at it!
