Finally! We have a patriotic runner!
This fabric line is perfect for patriotic projects that you don't want to scream red, white and blue. The dainty prints are the cutest and perfect for so many different projects. This runner was out for the 4th and will be out for a few more weeks.
I am so glad that inspiration struck my husband this time. One of the reasons I love to make and quilt is to give to others and he is my favorite person to gift. He really likes my version of his inspiration piece and that just makes me smile!
Straight-line quilting for the win, but for this runner I mixed up by quilting different directions alternating blocks. Still loving straight line quilting.
Usually I do solids for bindings to keep costs down, but I for my last few quilts I have branched out. Loving this red check...and that blue dot!!

I love this! My favorite thing about it is that it isn't a bright red/white/blue. You did a beautiful job with the design and the quilting. It's perfection! I'm off to find some of that fabric..:)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind comment, Beth. That is exactly why I love this fabric too. Have never seen a patriotic fabric line quite like this one.
DeleteLOVE this! Soft but still patriotic. Please share directions/pattern!
ReplyDeleteDidn't think about doing a pattern, but I did jot down some notes so I can absolutely do that!
