Well. I know it is still the Christmas season but what are you going to do when your mother says, "I don't have a table runner in fall colours." That sounds like a perfect hint for a Christmas make. I used up a lot of scraps on this one. Fall colours and linen scraps in random offset strips, 5" wide. I actually make all the strip sets at a guild sew in on my featherweight and then finished the rest at home on my Janome. I quilted it densely with an Aurifil 40 weight in a lovely linen tone. I used Aurifil 50 wt in cream in the bobbin. The slightly heavier Aurifil gives a lovely texture. The runner is bound in a medium olive green Grunge by Moda. So much fun. Gifted. And she likes it!
Very nice. So cheerful. Hope your mom liked it.
