I made this table runner to have for a just in case gift. The fabrics are several fat quarters that I bought from an Internet sale. The fabric collection is called "Cocoon". The patchwork pattern is adapted from Skinny Quilts by Kim Schaefer; the pattern is called "The Big Easy". The back and binding is the black and white polka dot fabric used for "Black and White and Red All Over". The blue cotton for the border came from my stash. I quilted it using a style I recently read about in a magazine; the author called it a 'meander with a spine'. Mother didn't like the quilting design at all. I think it's okay, but I do need to practice it some more.
I added this runner to the donation box.
