Its very pretty, perhaps it could be a Christmas gift for someone.

That's pretty cool! I can find a spot for it since it doesn't go with your house.

It is beautiful. The fabrics are great. It will make a great gift and it was a learning experience. My sister actually painted a room to match a quilt I had made. She saw me working on it and said "That is mine."

Actually there is a picture of one in the connecting threads magazine. They call it easy curves table Runner.

I just looked at it and kind of winged it. I cut my strips, fused them to the batting and backing and then cut strips and fused them on. then I did a tight zigzag stitch. I like the way the zig zag added something to it.

Lovely fabrics, and great job!!

Very clever!

I think I would get a whole bunch of the fabric that you used in this runner....and start redecorating, because it is gorgeous.

Divokittysmom 06-01-2011 04:37 PM

Regardless if it matches anything it's perfectly lovely!!

jaymemade 06-01-2011 04:48 PM

yeah and i think that most of this fabric is probably out of print now. I get alot of scraps from my friend who used to teach, She gives me anything that is or was to small for her taste. So getting more is probably out of the ?...

I will either use it for myself, sell it, or be one up one xmas presents... ;) :thumbup:
