Today I am participating in the Jelly Glazed Hearts tablerunner blog hop with the Fat Quarter Shop! Check out their post on the Jolly Jabber here!
For this project, I picked a mini jelly roll of the new Alma line from the Ruby Star Society and picked one of cream prints for the background fabric.
I picked out eight strips from the jelly roll for my blocks and paired them up.
Next came chopping my strip sets into the correct lengths for each block.
Then I made the heart blocks and added the setting triangles to each block.
This is a really, really long table runner!
I used backing from my stash and quilted this runner with leaves and swirls. I used six of the remaining jelly roll strips to make a scrappy bias binding. (I used this tutorial as my guide.)
This runner is actually just a little bit too big for my table (go figure) so this will likely become a gift!

It is so cute! I sewed a table runner and it ended up being too long, also. However, I just let it hang over the table and it worked out that way.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! I love the quilting that you did. You're all ready for Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteVery cute runner, I love the quilting!
ReplyDeleteIf one only did three hearts would that work better for a normal table;) At any rate it's very cute!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Too bad it doesn't work on your table.
