I forgot how satisfying it is to make a table runner. It takes far less time to finish than any quilt, and quilting it doesn't incite any swearing whatsoever.

I made this runner out of Gobble Gobble charm packs and thought a disappearing nine patch would do very nicely with these fabrics.

I used the same orange for the backing as I used for the sashing. Of all the solids, it seemed the most autumnal to me.

I like how some of the stippling reminds me of oak tree leaves. And I love those pumpkins! It's been washed so it's all crinkly and yummy :)

adorable!! i so need to make one of these...
Very very pretty! How do you do your quilting? I want to start doing some quilts, but don't know any finishing techniques besides tying with yarn. Any advice?
very cute! Table runners are such a quick and rewarding project, and a great way to use extra batting leftover from larger quilts
