In progress for Christmas

I love browsing the Moda Bakeshop blog and found a nice quick gift idea there last month:

I am making four runners with some Christmas charm packs, and just backing them with a single piece of Christmas fabric to make the charms go further. I might even get them done for Christmas 2010!

Very pretty, Lizzy. I, too, am making Christmas table runners; I'm using my Christmas fabric stash, and the pattern for a very easy 'quilt as you go' type strip runner posted here:

They do sew up quickly, and so far I have made three of them! This is the most 'ahead' of Christmas I've been in a long time.... :)

This must be the week for table runners. I'm working on a set of 3 for my DM. I'll get pics up tomorrow -- but basically a big star with a cardinal in the center. #1 is about 23" octogon; #2 is about 34" and #3 is about

52". She wanted 3 to match. Really happy with how they are turning out. Hopefully by this time tomorrow night -- all 3 tops will be completed!

Oh, I am sure you will get them done in time for Christmas! I made one and it went together really quickly. I also just used a piece of fabric for the back so I could use the cute charms somewhere else where they would show.

Here's a picture of my table runner made with that pattern.

I have 3 ready to bind now and one still needing some assembly. Yours is just darling. I too am copying the quilting style on the pattern as it does give that window effect and is really fast.

Howdy!

CUTE! and those apple dishes look so tasty!

R/Sandy - our trip to Illinois in the autumn always includes a stop or 3 at farmers' markets for apples; that Cruiser can hold lots of apples!
