Mother's Day Tablerunner

The charm pack of Sultry by Basic Grey was calling out to be sewn up into something. I found the pattern in table runners on Moda Bake Shop by Camille Roskelly. The whole thing came together very fast. I took it, along with 2 other tablerunners to mom to let her choose one. She chose this little pretty to be on the t.v. table. I think it looks mighty fine. Detail of rick rack (from Hancocks) and quilting. I like to quilt loops.
I'm hooked on the little hair clips to help with binding!
The backing.
Precuts have their qualities, but I don't always love them. The little pinked edges bother me at times.
Take Care~~

That's adorable Di. I love that pattern by Camille -- especially the rick rack!

The pink and the brown go very nice together Di.
My daughter just did her baby's room in those same colors.

Pretty good looking table runner there mom. Hey are you ever going to mention to your blog that there is a new member of your family, and that your life status has changed?

That's lovely! I adore Basic Grey. I love those binding clips too - they make the job so much easier. And I don't like pre-cuts either, they're NEVER straight. As I can't sew a straight line to begin with, they really mess me up, lol!
