Create a Lovely Runner in a Braided Design

| March 26, 2020 | Table Toppers
It’s Great in Any Color Theme!
Pretty fabrics in a braided design create a lovely runner. This will be wonderful in any color palette so have fun making it your own.
The example shown here is a pieced runner without borders laid on top of a blue runner to show what it will look like with a border. Press well as you go and yours will lay nice and flat once it’s completed.
Start with 2 1/2″ strips from a favorite jelly roll or cut strips from fabric you have on hand. Fat quarters and yardage work fine for this project.
This is a simple project and one that will go together quickly. Any ruler with a 45 degree cutting angle will work.
Instructions are provided by Bari J. Ackerman for a 6′ runner. Go ahead and adjust the length to fit your table.
