Fall Table Runner Finished!


We had a beautiful weekend but as luck would have it, Bill and I seem to have gotten a flu bug so we sat on our butts and watched tv all weekend. The good thing was, I was able to stitch all day and I got the quilting done on my table runner and then today I finished the sunflowers and binding.

The bad thing is, my brain is messed up and I cut from the wrong point of the quilt and lost my black border and it had to be double folded to make a binding instead. All in all it came out ok and looks nice on the table.

The fabrics were from a charm pack called Posh Pumpkins by Sandy Gervais and the leaves are from one of her older fabric lines. I used the same sunflowers that are in my scarecrow hanging since he will go on the window in this room and now they will match. The fabric was a prize from Sauder's Fabrics and if you visit now you can enter their contest for their 40th anniversary.



And here is a close up, bad stitching and piecing, so you can see, I am definitely not a perfectionist;)

    Debbie...I love Sandy's fabrics! I made a table topper a few years ago and have another fabric collection from her that I need to use one of these days. Her colors are so prim. Great job!

    Hope your feeling better now. As long as the runner makes you happy that's all that matter. I love the colors you used. Your stitching is better than mine as I can't hand stitch worth a dime.

    Very fall looking and I wouldn't know one way or the other if you made a mistake. I hope you get over the nastiness soon.
