Table Runner

Here is the table runner I made as a house warming gift. It was quick and easy. I let the fabric do the work since I was short on time to get it finished before we went to our friends new home. She seemed very pleased with it. :0)
Here is a close up of how I machine quilted this one.
And here is the back.
This is what we had for dinner. Chicken Bryan. It was very good. (See the table cloth and the colors in it? I think I matched the table runner fabric fairly well to what she has going on in her home! Hooray!)
Surprise!! This beauty is two hexagon blocks hand pieced by a special friend of mine! She said she was really enjoying the part of picking out fabrics for it. :0)

  7. Pretty table runner! I love it, the colors and the quilting which is so, so sweet. What wonderful blocks your special friend made for you. I would guess who pieced those alluring, amazing hexagon blocks but I might be wrong and that would be embarrassing. So I'll just look at them and say oooh an ahhhh...
