This is a table runner that Chamaine and I picked charms squares out for a couple years ago. In a giant bin of six-inch charms at Pine Needles Quilting in Gardner Village in Utah. One of my favorite quilt shops. I could have dug through that bin of charms for days. As it is, I came out with quite a good little pile.
A lot of the prints were larger scale, which I hated to slice up. I held on to this little stack for quite a while, trying to come up with something to do with them. Last fall at a quilting retreat, I finally settled on a very simple runner that let the fun prints speak for themselves. The top went together quickly, but it wasn't until just recently that I got the binding finished. It's almost a little I Spy table runner. To keep it from looking too simple and boring, I added some red ric-rac around the border. I think it's fun. And festive.
The rick rack really makes it sparkle..great idea

Cute table runner and the rick rack is a nice touch. I love Pine Needles too and miss going there. In fact, I miss going to Garner Village period.
