Fall Table Runner
 
2 Attachment(s)
I'm usually not one to decorate for fall but when I saw this border print it called my name. After purchasing the Creative Grids 60 degree triangle ruler I was itching to give it a try. This is also the first time I dropped the feed dogs and gave it a try on the black portion of the runner. The result - well, the machine is still functioning and I didn't rip any of it out so I'm guessing it was successful. Until now I have avoided FMQ like the plaque, but since my best friend starting quilting recently and she tried FMQ on her very first project I couldn't be left behind now could I?

Great job!!! I love it.

Your table runner is beautiful. Great job on the quilting. I think this fabric is perfect for this runner because the seams don't jump right out at me. It is hard to tell that this wasn't pre-printed. I hope that makes sense what I'm saying. Thanks for putting this up here.

Very pretty runner! That fabric called to me as well but I haven't actually done anything with mine yet...

That is a fine fall runner.

QuiltMom2 11-17-2015 04:36 AM

Beautiful runner! Don't you love those friends that make you try something new?

Cactus Stitchin 11-17-2015 04:42 AM

Thank you all for the kind words about my table runner! It is encouraging that perhaps you really are doing something right after all. As for the friend - yes - I love having someone to bounce ideas off of, particularly for color matching. She's been following me to quilt shops for years but just this year is trying it for herself.

skypony 11-17-2015 05:54 AM

that's really cool. I love that.

jmoore 11-18-2015 04:06 AM

pretty fabric and wonderful runner... Runners are a great size to practice your FMQing. Keep up the good work.

juliea9967 11-18-2015 04:35 AM

Very nice. Great job.

quilterpurpledog 11-18-2015 04:54 AM

That is one of the most beautiful table runners I have ever seen! Not only is the border print perfect for its use but the scale of it just fits those angled pieces. Enjoy your table runner.

I totally agree. That's the prettiest one I've seen yet using that pattern!

junegerbracht 11-18-2015 06:13 AM

Just made runners using the same fabric. Love this pattern. Wonderful gift - everyone I have given one to is amazed and I am almost embarrassed that it went together so quickly. It is all in the fabric you choose - can become an addiction.

BettyGee 11-18-2015 06:37 AM

Beautiful! What an amazing piece of work you have created. Almost too pretty to put anything on. I love table runners and table toppers. They lend themselves to creativity and don't take a lifetime to make. Also they make wonderful gifts. thank you so much for sharing your art.

jamsbuying 11-18-2015 08:51 AM

Nice runner! Love your fabric choices.

Have been working on those myself....Love them, and love yours! The pattern is so versatile...and yours is gorgeous.
