Three finishes

 Last week was a busy one. In addition to meeting several of my goals I finished three more table runners.

These are such fun ones to make, it's hard to stop!  Which ones you ask...gingham table runners of course!  These are made using my Accuquilt 3" strip cutter, I have a tutorial for them on the Accuquilt blog


They really are super fast to make, sew strips, cross cut, sew into rows. It takes me about an hour to sew one. 


It's really fun to pick three fabrics that coordinate. 


I have used the orange and yellow fabrics for one last year, but this one has a different white background fabric.  You can even use a fat quarter for the light fabric.  These two are now listed in my Etsy shop.


I had a little extra time one day and looked around my sewing room to see what I could work on. I always have lots of projects in the works.  This snowman runner was the closest to the finish line with only needing binding. The pattern for this runner is called Tilting Trees and can be found in my Etsy pattern shop.  I used my Accuquilt 2.25" strip cutter to cut bias binding quickly. They have a good tutorial on how to do this.
