Happy Go Lucky Table Runner
A friend of mine, Liz (who also is a quilter and a
blogger), emailed me a few weeks ago telling me that her family was coming to my neck of the woods for vacation in August. Yippee! And to add a little awesome, she suggested we do a quilty swap while she was in town.
Done.
We narrowed the field of items to either a table runner or a placemat, and I pretty quickly decided to do a table runner. Having just received several
Happy Go Lucky charm packs in the mail, I decided to play around with those for Liz's table runner.
For the backing, I used an extra block and
Michael Miller "Put A Lid On It" in Nite.
The quilting is really simple straight lines. I stitched 1/4" on either side of each diagonal seam in both directions, creating a wide crosshatch.
Binding is Moda Bella solid in Robin's Egg. (Also, my favorite color. FYI)
I hope Liz likes it!
What are you working on today?
Happy Stitching!
