“Gift Boxes” Quilt-as-You-Go Runner

Description

I originally came up with this design using silver and gold fabrics and ribbons (as seen in the gallery images), but then when I started designing for thefabrichut.com, it occurred to me that their fat fifths were perfect for making use Xmas “wrapping paper.”  While reworking the pattern, I figured it’d be easy to make it a sew-and-flip, quilt-as-you-go project.  Voila!  It works great.  Use any length and vibe you want, from elegant snowflakes to sassy Xmas cats!  So…go create!! –Libby

Designed especially for fat quarters or “fat fifths” (from www.thefabrichut.com) , this easy table runner by Christensen Creations is perfect for any celebration!  Just change the fabrics to fit the theme, such as wedding or anniversary.  Also change the length.  The directions include seam-and-fold quilting for 42″, 54″, 60″, and 72″ runner lengths as well as how to bind/miter the corner.  Easily add the ribbons and bows for darling embellishment!
