Evergreen Tree Table Topper Tutorial

This would be a perfect table topper for the holidays. I think it would also be so neat in a cabin in the woods! I hope you enjoy this tutorial for the Evergreen Tree table runner and if you make one I’d love to see it.

Evergreen Trees Table Runner Tutorial

Approximately 22 x 31

Fabric Cutting

• Green – cut (40) 2-inch squares
• Green – cut (1) 6-inch strip for Evergreen trees
• White – cut (40) 2-inch squares
• White – cut (1) 7½ x 16-inch rectangle
• Green – cut (3) 2½-inch strips width of fabric (binding)
• Backing – one yard

Borders

Measure your piece before cutting your borders

• Green – cut (2) 5-inch x 16-inch border pieces
• Green – cut (2) 5-inch x 31-inch border pieces

Use a ¼ inch seam allowance. I did not give yardage, just what needs to be cut.

Add checkerboards to the top and bottom of the centerpiece as shown below.

Now make 2 more checkerboards for the sides.
Each row will have 9 squares in it – 2 rows for each checkerboard.

Your piece should look like this:

Now add your 5-inch borders – Sides first – 5 x 13 ½ inches

Then add top and bottom pieces which are 5 x 31 inches.

 Add your appliquéd trees and appliqué in your favorite way.

I used a free motion stippling to attach mine.

Then quilt as desired and bind. I used different fabrics for my checkerboards, borders, and trees.

Evergreen Tree Mug Rug

You can also applique one of the evergreen trees on to a mug rug.

Placemats

How about some fast and easy placemats! I have also included a larger tree that can be used on placemats. I cut mine 12 x 16 and put the tree on the left side of each placemat.

I also tried making a placemat with frayed edges but I didn’t care for it.
