Essence Table Runner... Version 2.0

Made another table runner out of Essence by Sandy Gervais. I like the first one, but I felt you couldn't really see the prints too well... So I made another where you could!

A little part of me wishes I'd have quilted it in a grid pattern or with straight lines now... but I like it all the same.

I used the same binding as the first one... can't get enough of it heehee!

The back's a red tartan... it's almost Christmassy, no?

Anyway it ended up measuring 41" by 16" and is currently available at the store SOLD! :)

I warn you... I might have another Essence runner to come. I haven't yet decided...

  1. Stunning.... Let's not go to Christmas yet. Even though I did in my post today. I still thing the swirls are great. But, what do I know. I just love your choice of fabrics and sense of humor on a daily bases.

  4. Very pretty!! I like this version. I think that the quilting is great. But you are right, different styles of quilting really can give a quilt a different look.
