New quilt

Sep 01, 2003 7 Replies

I saw a little tablerunner I really liked, forget where, but it was while I was cruising the Net the other night looking for Bible blocks and flowers...anyway, it was so charming and I had a bunch of the squares already cut in my scrap pile - so I thought, why not? I sat down and started making it. I had to figure out the whole thing, and math is not my strong point! Had to cut the side triangles down 3 times before I got it right, and then had to assemble it in straight lines, which took me a while to figure out.



The pictures are in my WEBSHOTS sig below, and it is in the album titles MORE QUILTS.

Shelly,

The little squares are 3 inches, the big square is 5 1/2 inches, and the triangle is cut to 8 1/2 inches ( I THINK). I had to cut it down 3 times and I think it was 8 1/2 inches.

Back and batting were leftovers from another quilt.

I put it together in about 4 hours.

That's really beautiful. It's very simple and elegant, and the colours are so cool and calm.

Very nice! Thanks for the idea -I needed a little project for an upcoming charity auction donation :-) Roberta in D

Thanks for this! It's lovely and looks so good with your pretty bowl on it. It's very inspiring to see the smaller projects.

The kitchen/dining room pass-thru is indeed a good place. Nice addition there. Dancing in the moonlight for ya, Merry!

It's adorable, Merry! I love it! :)
