Last Friday afternoon I got a call from Calico Point, the runner was quilted! Nathalie picked it up and dropped it off at my house for binding.
This time I remembered to take pictures before I sent it home with her. There is snow for the background since we had snow overnight last Friday.
Here are sideway pictures. The individual stars finish at 12". The tablerunner itself is 20" by 75".
The first two stars . . .
The center star . . .
Right side stars . . .
The quilting shows nicely on the backing fabric. Gray thread was used for the quilting
Nathalie texted me a picture of the runner on her dining room table. This was supposed to be a gift for someone but now she's reconsidering and may keep it for herself.
I did not have a pattern for this project, I made it up as I sewed.

That is a beautiful table runner and such pretty colors. The quilting sets it off nicely. I don't blame her for keeping it!
ReplyDeletesometimes we have to reconsider and keep for ourselves - it looks pretty
ReplyDeleteDear Gretchen,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table runner, you have inspired another to make one more. The craft will thrive because of your. Thank you. We are waiting for spring to come and we have noticed buds in our tree in the back yard. Always nice to see, especially when we have snow still on the ground.
What a lovely table runner! No wonder she is tempted to keep it. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss. https://www.inquiringquilter.com/questions/2024/02/21/wednesday-wait-loss-368
