4th Qtr FAL Finish

The linkup for the 4th quarter Finish-Along ends tomorrow night so, of course, I'm hustling to finish posting my completed items.

One of the items on my original list was this table runner.
I purchased the kit on Craftsy.  The fabric is Moda's Winterlude.  I liked the blue in the collection and thought it would match my dining room.  It measures 51" x 25" and fits my table quite nicely.
I was very happy with the end result.  The pattern itself was not difficult.  It's made with a Honeybun which means that there are a lot of 1 1/2" squares.  It took me longer than I anticipated.
One of the things I like about the pattern is that there is a flange between the outside border and the inside border.
It's a nice effect.  I did an all-over stipple for the quilting.  The back is just a plain piece of a cream print.
I enjoyed using this during the holidays.  It's still on my table.  The poinsettia, however, didn't make it through Christmas.  I think they come to my house to die.

Joyful stitching,
jane
