Modern Table Runner
 
2 Attachment(s)
I have been making these blocks and decided to make a table runner for my daughter who has lots of grey tones in her home and a yellow kitchen. It is an easy pattern by Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr in my American Patchwork and Quilting Feb. 2012 issue. I have lots more cut for a quilt. The back is like the bright yellow and grey flower fabric. Taking it to her tomorrow, hope she likes it for her table.[ATTACH=CONFIG]351209[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]351210[/ATTACH]

That is totally cool. It was fun looking at all the individual fabrics.

This is a great "modern" table runner... so lively! Can't wait to see the quilt you are working on.

OMG! Do we share a DD? My DD's condo is gray (she refers to it as "greige") with a yellow kitchen, too! And she would FLIP if I was a nice Mommy like you are & made her a fabulous runner like this. It's adorable! Great job!

That's beautiful and so is your Edith Wolford iris..would be perfect in bloom on the table runner. I am going to dig out my copy of the magazine and see what I can do with this pattern

If she doesn't bring it here. I love it. Some how it reminds me of a slide show at a botanical garden and am all about the garden. Great job.

So hip and up to date! Did you have to buy these fabrics special and not from your stash?:D This would also be lovely in "our" colors with a goldish tan border instead of the white.

Great runner.....love the bright colors.

bisbetica 07-27-2012 06:58 AM

very cool! love it!

No, I had these fabrics! I often buy FQ's in lots of styles, just so I can play with new ideas. This quilt takes small pieces, so you can easily use scraps. My daughter did like it alot, but with 3 youngsters at the table, you have to decide when you can display it. I told her- use it! I understand about kiddies and spills and messes that happen on a daily basis!

What a modern bright tablerunner!!! Great job!

Very nice! I spent quite a lot of time looking at the individual fabrics - when I should be working.

Lilrain 07-27-2012 10:01 AM

I love it! Is the joining difficult?

No, it's actually easy. The strips are narrow, but simple to put together!

SouthPStitches 07-28-2012 08:19 AM

Should be perfect for her, nice job.
