Here's a pic of a table runner I made today in Fall fabrics. I was in Hancocks the other day and saw a fat quarter bundle of 5 fall fabrics and thought they were really nice looking so picked them up and made this with them. It measures 14" x 30".

The block pattern is based on a block from a quilt called "Working My Way Around" in a book called "Beautiful Borders, Backings, and Bindings" by Jill Reber and Margaret Sindelar. I liked the block pattern because it has a large center block that can show off fussy cuts of nice fabrics.

That is really a nice looking table runner. I especially like the dark green of the stars. Just adds soooo much dimention.

That is soooo nice! I can almost smell the fall leaves and hear the kids jumping in them right after they have been raked up! Great job and composition.

Lovely! Nice fabrics, pattern, and of course, work.

I adore Hancocks and wish we still had ours.

I finally got around to making the matching placements for the table runner this weekend. :) The camera lens makes the ones on top look skewed, but thei're actually square.

I've seen some really ugly runners made in the name of fall... yours did NOT make the list! You have an eye for colour and fabric placement! Wicked!

Dora Taggart 01-09-2010 11:44 PM

Hi Eddie, I have looking at all the beautiful quilts and other things, your work is gorgeous..I was wondering sometime will you share pictures of your studio with all of us ...I bet it is an amazing place

Thanks for the inspiration

rootyr 01-10-2010 03:21 AM
