Table Runner Finish


I was able to finish up the quilting on the table runner and find a complimentary binding fabric in the stash as well.


I used one of the embroidery stitches on my machine to sew down the binding for a different look.  I had used this stitch a lot back when I was making a bunch of mug rugs...


Everything for this project came from stash and the batting was pieced from remnants.  I must say my FMQ-ing is improving with each project.


I love walking through the dining room and seeing all the pretties... and now, there is a new runner that sets off the glassware so much more nicely!

  5. Beautiful, Freda! What a lovely display background this makes for the pretty glassware. Should bring a smile each time you pass.
    I like that stitch on your binding!
    Of course, your quilting is improving. All those annoying people that told me to "practice, practice, practice" were absolutely right!! (But don't tell them I said so.)

  6. Those blocks worked up so nicely. They give your glass such wonderful colors to reflect. Thanks also for the link for the how too. I had it last month and couldn't find it last week. I really need to admit that I need to write things down.
