This was a quickie project - and who doesn't like a quickie?
I'm not big on fabric panels. I always like the panel quilts my friends make, but I don't tackle them very often. I found this panel in with my stash fabrics. I don't recall purchasing it, so I possibly acquired it from someone. I liked this panel and debated for a couple months if I should make a table runner from it or pass on to someone else. As you can see I decided to keep it. And staying true to my new year's commitment I was able to use my stash fabric to complete it.
I think it's cute and it fits great on my kitchen bar counter top.
I did minimal quilting by straight stitching along a few of the squares from the print. I added the black and white checked border on the top and bottom and chose to bind the runner with yellow gold. The finished size is 15" by 41 1/2". All in all, I probably spent about two hours constructing. But it did take me several months to decide what I wanted to do. What a nice break to complete a project so quickly.
I will enjoy many cups of coffee by my new table runner.
