A Plaid + Solids Tablerunner

One of my co-workers recently commissioned me to make her a custom tablerunner. She gave me plaid fabric from two huge home dec fabric pillowcases, and asked me to incorporate other colors. I
thought that solid stripes would work best, and I went straight to work!

 

Quilted with my typical straight-line-combined-with-spirals-tablerunner free motion quilting. Those lines are not completely straight (but almost). Because that's how I wanted them to look and because I used my free motion foot instead of my walking foot. I think it gives runners a more unique feel. Aka, it's not factory made. But still professional and well done. :) Of course, I can do straight lines on request!

I was pleased with the selection of greens, blues, grays, and whites in my fabric stash! 

 

Next on the list this summer: purchase my own labels. :)

My friend loved it! Here it is in its new home. :) Thanks again, Marge, for trusting me with your fabric and your vision!

 I'm excited to be working on two more commission tablerunners this month (fall/winter, double-sided)!
