A Strippy Fall Table Runner

For September's Friday Night Sew In I decided to work on the Fall Table Runner that I had been planning to do for quite some time. My goal for Friday Night Sew In is the totally complete a project, but this one isn't done yet. I hope to quilt and bind it this weekend and maybe will be able to show you the finished runner in a few days. I hope to plan better in October so that the project can be completed in time to post the results on Saturday.

Anyway, here is the completed top of the runner. I pulled all these fabrics from scraps and my stash. I am blessed to have so much fabric that I can put together a project without going shopping at all.



I initially planned to make the runner reversible with a Christmas theme on one side and an Autumn theme on the other, but decided against it. First of all, I didn't have time and I wanted to see how the Autumn runner turned out before going to all that trouble. I even pulled the Christmas fabrics I wanted to use, which will come in handy when I get around to making it!







Well, I better get going! There's more to homemaking than quilting and sewing and its Saturday!

Debbie are you sure there is more to homemaking than just quilting, LOL.

I have some fall stuff that I refuse put up until I dust the area, so you must be right! Have a great weekend.

Very nice! I love the pumpkin halloween fabric and the animated look leaf fabric. I might go to the fabric store to see if I can see something similar! That would be fun :-)

Are you SURE about that "more to homemaking..." part? :) I usually like to finish a Friday Night Sew-in Project, too, which results in some late nights, but you were close. I really like the tablerunner.
