This was the year for spiral table runners. I made 3, one for my daughter and 2 for my daughter-in-laws. I tried to choose fabrics that I thought would suit each of them. The first is for my daughter-in-law, Jae, who lives in Albuquerque. I chose warm colors that I thought depicted their environment.
This green and black table runner is for my daughter, Anna. She once wanted a lime green jacket, and I wouldn't buy it for her. I hope she enjoys the different greens in this one.
The 3rd is for my daughter-in-law, Susan. I thought these colors looked like her, and I loved the fabric with all of the words of faith. I knew she would enjoy them, also.
These were fun to make. I had made one before, but it was difficult to machine quilt. This year, I bought a sewing machine for my granddaughters for Christmas, and I wanted to try it out before I gave it to them. It had a walking foot, which my Janome does not have. It worked beautifully on these projects.
Whatever you made for gifts for Christmas this year, I hope you had as much fun sewing as I did. Merry Christmas to all!
They are very cute table runners and I love the colours in all three of them. I've had great fun making my Christmas gifts this year and I'm looking forward to making more next year. Merry Christmas
