Earth, Wind and Water Table Runner Finished

Posted on February 13, 2020 | 18 Comments

I have finished the Earth, Wind and Water table runner that I talked about in this post.

I decided to keep the quilting simple and do straight line quilting with a walking foot.

A close up of the the contrasting blue thread quilting:

Did I say simple? Yeah, I thought I would simply stitch in the ditch to finish up this project.

I am here to tell you that stitching in the ditch takes considerable time when there are sooooooooooooooooo many ditches to stitch!

Sweet little birds floating on the back:

Close up the quilting:

The texture will show up better after I wash the table runner.

I am happy with the results, and this table runner will get good use.

Quilt on!

It’s a beautiful runner. The fabrics just speak ‘natural goodness’ and look so refreshing – just like being next to a mountain stream!

Hi Laura! This sure is a pretty table runner. I love those fabrics – I’ve never seen anything like the rocks in the border, but it looks exactly like our lakefront. So cool and yippee for a finish. ~smile~ Roseanne

  Thank you, Roseanne. The rock fabric is from Kona (now out of business). I’ve had that fabric in my stash for a long time. I have lots left…I need to find more projects to use it in! 🙂

Love the finished product, and I think I still have some of the rock fabric in my collection too, though not a lot.
