Reversible Table Runner

Reversible Table Runner Collage

Reversible Table Runner!  I love making these.  It is two decor options in one.  Just flip it over for a different look.

Quilted table runner

The quilting is simple and works well with both sides.

Chevron table runner

This post has a lot of pictures.  I took so many and had trouble picking just a few.

Quilted Chevron Table Runner

The finished size is 16" by 48", but is easily adjustable with the addition/subtraction of blocks and strips of fabric.

Christmas Quilted Table Runner

Here is side B.  I love this look for Christmas and I don't feel guilty spending all this time creating something for Christmas because I know that when Christmas is over, I can just flip it over and keep on using it.  I love it!!!

I love the little Scottie dogs and I am sorry to say, I don't know the name of this fabric.  I have had it for years and do not remember where I found it. 

Christmas Table Runner

I love the fabrics on the Christmas side.  I used three Christmas fabrics and the rest are fabrics for everyday use, but they are colors that work well with a Christmas theme.  (The solid used for both sides and the binding is Robert Kaufman Kona cotton in Snow)

I love the black on black polka dots (center of the picture above) from the Mama Said Sew collection by Sweetwater for Moda.  I have had this fabric for a while and haven't used it yet.  I need to use it more often (and maybe purchase more) because I love how well it works with other fabrics and it is pretty and sophisticated.



A quick picture of my helper (Artemis) while I was taking pictures.  As soon as the camera starts clicking, his tail starts twitching because I am annoying him.  He's a brat.
Lark Chevron table runner

I love how the Lark collection by Amy Butler looks in this chevron pattern of half square triangles (HST).  This is such a fun and pretty collection.

It is very artistic and works well as a decor fabric.  The colors are beautiful and soothing.

I hope you have enjoyed this very lengthy post with lots of pictures.  I am very proud of this table runner and am excited to share it with you. 

Lark Reversible Table Runner

I have listed a pattern for this reversible table runner in my Etsy shop if you would like to make one for your home or as a gift.  Here is the listing:  Reversible Table Runner.

 Here is a link to the previous table runner I made:  Reversible Halloween Table Runner

 Happy Sewing!

    I love that Lark selection!!! I have a few but didn't get a any of the red prints. They sure do look great together :)
    I love the idea of a reversible table runner. I wish I'd thought of it before I made 2 Christmas runners and a Halloween runner, lol! Oh well, they were all fun to make :)

    Love your table runner. I try to be reversible on runners and placemats: double duty seems good.
