A Week of Finishes: Christmas Table Runner

This  is one of my original 1st Quarter FAL projects. You can find the original post with all the projects here. I'll be linking this up at She Can Quilt here.

A Week of Finishes is all about blogging and finally sharing the things I have finished. I hope you'll join me! The linky will be open until Monday night, March 4th.

 
Christmas in March? Ok, sure. Actually this was finished in February. I had a good friend come over in December, or sometimes, and taught her how to quilt, or at least a little bit. She wanted a table runner, so I put this easy pattern together and decided I wanted to make one too. I don't have a long table, so instead of making it two blocks wide, I made mine more square than long. I am definitely excited for November/December to roll around so I can display it! :)

I REALLY love the quilting on the fabric on the back of this quilt.

And there it is. Simple as that. :) I really need to order some labels to put on my quilts... I always forget to make one.

  1. What a beautiful table topper. Your straight line quilting looks perfect. Sadly, Christmas will be here before you know it!

  2. So pretty! And it reminds me I have a Christmas quilt I started with the same fabric line. Maybe I'll just pull it out and finish it now! There's nothing wrong with a little Christmas in March. :-)
