Am I running low yet? Nope!
I had a bag full of 9 patches - made out of
strips that were 1 1/2" wide.
Not knowing what I wanted to do with them
exactly; so they were put away.
So, they came out of the WIP draw and I
thought that I would make a table runner out
of them.
Table runner is 30" x 18 1/2"
I really like the fabric but don't know the
manufacturer, as I bought them as Fat
Quarters. The look of it reminds me of a
Romantic Cottage style.
I wanted to try something new, so I decided
to use a decorative stitch around the sashing.
I think that it gives it a nice touch. The quilting
is just a plain cross hatch.
The back of the table runner is a solid olive
green but with the quilting in a cranberry color
it has a nice contrast and the runner now can
be reversible.
We have all these pretty decorative stitches
built in our machines and they should be
used more. Don't you think?
I had lots more 9 patches left, so I made
some matching mats. Mats are 10 1/2" x 13 1/2" each.
