As you know, I have been getting busy for a craft show with some friends this last weekend. One of the things that I really wanted to make, but just didn't get to was a burlap table runner. So one hour before set up, I set out to make a burlap table runner with ruffles. This turned out to be my absolute favorite item that I made, and of course it sold! I thought I would share this beauty!It was 17 inches X 55 inches long. It went the whole length of my table and had some hanging over.
I put ruffles on each end of the runner. The burlap was from a coffee sack and the ruffle from the edge of the material I used to back a quilt a few years back. It was already cut and folded in half, so it was perfect for this project.
I measured it out to have this stripe down the middle of the runner. It was down the middle of the sack.
I love the fact that it even had some markings from use. Give sit more character.
I am going to have to make some more of these for sure...what do you think? Make sure to check out some of the blogs in the right column that I love to link up to.
