So pretty! And there was no fussy picking and choosing involved. I had a pile of 3 7/8 inch triangles that I had cut from scraps years ago taking up space in a little storage drawer. I just pulled them out and sewed a print to a white (or muslin) triangle. Then I arranged them into broken dishes blocks and threw them up on the design board.
I think I might have moved a block or two, but that was it! I sewed it all together and found a fun piece of fabric for the back and quilted it up in a quick meander with off white Aurifil thread.
I found a cute fabric to frame it for binding and now it's a finished table runner:
I love doing my binding totally by machine! If you haven't downloaded a copy of my No Hand Stitching binding tutorial, it's available on PayHip - and it's free!
