Purple Tablerunner
 
Very pretty. Thanks for sharing,

Beautiful! I love purples and yellows together.
I just finished a table runner that has the same corners and ALSO had a devil of a time with them. I really wish I'd thought of just sewing and turning the darned thing. Oh well, it's quilted now and that's the way it will stay. Anyway, thanks for the idea of sewing and turning - I now know I'll make another one.

Great table runner. Love it.

So does that mean that the yellow pieces are 1/4 of a [larger] yellow square? and that it's not 1/2 of a yellow/purple half-square-triangle? Thanks!

Roma Bauder 07-01-2013 08:16 AM

Love it. Great job

Bravo to you for persevering. It's beautiful.

It's beautiful - love your colors and fabrics.

I have made a few that size that I put on the back of the sofa. My little fur babies like to sit up there to watch the world go by. Larger than table length, but perfect to keep the hair under control

It's really pretty - I can see why you liked the pattern (and I love your colors, too!), but I hope your table is a very long one... unless, of course, you plan to be eating on that pretty wood floor!

Wonderful and in my very favorite colors.

QUILTNMO 07-01-2013 03:26 PM

very nice job!

jeanharville 07-01-2013 07:42 PM

Beautiful and you did a nice job on it. I can see why you wanted to make it. I wish you knew the name of the pattern. If you find it let us know.

bbeyes 07-01-2013 08:46 PM

Great job!

Oksewnsew 07-01-2013 09:16 PM

I just finished one from a pattern - it turned out waaay too big for any table I have, so----I lay it across the bottom of my bed, it's perfect for a bed runner...:thumbup:

drJaner 07-02-2013 09:28 AM

Congratulations! Job well done. I admire your determination in making it work for you.:thumbup:

I've been wanting to make a bedrunner in purples for my daughter but haven't been able to decide on a pattern. I wonder if I could adapt this to a little longer and wider for a king bed? This pattern is great and I'd like to try. Your's is beautiful. Might be quite a challenge to make it bigger, especially width. Hmmmm?;)

Very pretty. Great job reworking the original to make it fit your needs.
