A Border Design in a Table Runner Format
June 30th, 2017
This is a new machine embroidery applique border design, but I set it in a mirror-image format to use it as a table runner here. The swags and flowers can actually be repeated countless times so that it can fit pretty much any border size. Here is a closer shot of some of the ruler work quilting:
The end sections of the pea-green areas have some arc ruler work that was stitched without thought about what I would put in the blue sections at end side:
When I went to quilt the blue sections, I did a double Art Deco border design and then threw featherettes into the center triangle zones. Even though the blue areas are stitched in a different color thread, it appears that the designs blend seamlessly into one another:
This stitched up very quickly and was fun all the way through…
Love, love, love all the textures here:
