Plymouth Table Runner

All finished and photos as promised! I was in luck yesterday there was just enough light last night when I got home from work to take a couple of quick photos while Payton enjoyed his snack.

I am very happy with the results of this project. When I saw this fabric at my local store I just knew what I wanted to do with it, it yelled to be table runner!

The runner looks great on my black table but I think it would really shine on a white table or wood table top as well.

I bought another Thanksgiving theme fabric as well but noticed when I got home that it is not for commercial resale.

But it looks like I may be having Thanksgiving at my house this year so I will make it for myself :) And if not it will make a great hostess gift for someone else.

WIP-Wednesday New Aprons and Table Cloth



Happy WIP Wednesday! I have a couple projects going this week that I hope to have completed and in the shop by next week.

The first 3 fabrics going left to right (birdie, poinsettias, and cute christmas kids) are on their way to being Flirty Girl Aprons.

The last fabric on the right is an Alexander Henry Fabric called Plymouth. I actually finished this project since taking the picture this morning. I made it into a very elegant table runner, it will make a beautiful addition to any Thanksgiving festivities.

Today is a bad day to take pictures, very grey and rain soaked day here in Michigan. I am hoping for blue-ish skies tomorrow so I can take pictures to show you all how well the table runner turned out.

I hope you all are having a better weather day where ever you are!
