Beautiful runner :D I really love the colors you chose :D :D :D
|
Lovely! Simply lovely!
|
That's really pretty Patsy, I love the way you've picked the pink and green out of your print and you've done such a good job of the piecing :thumbup:
|
Very nice!! My next projects are going to be table runners with Christmas themes. That looks like a nice size runner. How long & wide did you make it? I may try something similar in some nice Christmas fabrics. :D
|
the runner is 16 x 33 finished size....the blocks are 7 1/2 finished...I made it up as I went along! LOL I just love star patterns! they make everything look so good!
Thank you for all the nice compliments! |
I made a couple of runners last year & I also made it in a wider width. Mine were 16 x 72" as my mother in law wanted something longer for her table & she wasn't finding what she wanted in the pre-made variety. It was a fairly simple runner & would have been VERY, VERY simple except for the fact that after I'd turned it & sewn some red buttons on it I discovered a flaw (hole in fabric- 3" in from the finished edge) in the material & so then I had a creative challange. I made some bias tape in a contrasting color (red) to match the red buttons (I used those instead of quilting or tying). I sewed the bias (3 " in from the side) all the way around the runner & covered the flaw with the bias while actually making the runner look even better. I like it when that happens!! :D

pam....picture please! don't ya have one? would love to see it!
|
Oops...No I don't have a photo. It's the one that got away!!! LOL I usually take photos of my quilts but didn't think to take a photo of the table runner. Maybe when we visit on Thanksgiving I can take a photo. My MIL lives about 4 hours away.

Jeannette.....I didn't use a pattern for this....I just made the three star blocks from a picture I saw....figured out the sizes on my own, added the borders and thats about it! I didn't even write down my sizes of squares and stuff as I went along or I would share it with you!
I just measured the star blocks and they are 8 inches finished if that helps... Thanks for all the nice compliments! |
I just found the website where I saw the picture and got my general idea for this runner....its the first one on the right...the octagon shaped one....
