Table runners are one of my favorite quilt projects to make. It is a wonderful way to try out a new quilt block and still end up with a beautiful quilted item. I used my Spinners quilt pattern to make this tablerunner.
Spinners Tablerunner
12″ x 36″
I made 3 of the blocks to make a nice size of tablerunner for my living room. The fabrics are batiks from Island Batik that were leftover from a project I made last year. It might be hot here in Iowa right now but fall is right around the corner and this will look perfect then.
I always like to show the difference that quilting makes on a quilt project. Here is the tablerunner all pieced together before I quilted it.
Here is a photo of the same quilt block after being quilted. I just did a simple meandering stitch on the background. There is no quilting on the half square triangles.
It is always a challenge to use my leftover batik scraps and I had just enough of these to make the tablerunner.
The blocks are 12 inches – I used my AccuQuilt GO! to make fast work of cutting out all of the pieces. The Half Square 3″ finished HST die is one of the first dies I ever bought and one of my favorites, it can be used in any of the AccuQuilt Go! cutters.
If you like this tablerunner, you’ll want to take a look at the post I did about the Spinners quilt. I also made this same batik quilt last year with a different set of batiks.
Have fun quilting and thanks for stopping by!

Lovely Tablerunner Dear. I like how trying a block and then creating a practical project that is small and time manageable can also become such a pretty gift to give.

Hello Connie; This is a beautiful table runner! The two blocks you chose to create look fabulous together. I may have to take the time today and create a few of these blocks. A great and dear friend is having a Birthday soon and this would be something she would love. I have not followed the links you have highlighted yet, but will after I have posted my comment. It is also great because the half square triangle die you used is one that I actually do have! Thank you for designing and sharing another magnificent project! Have a splendid day!
