Tablerunner Bliss Quilt Along :: Garland
I didn’t anticipate taking a two-month-long break from blogging. But I’m glad to be here today sharing my make from This & That Pattern Company’s new book, Tablerunner Bliss.
The book features 20 table runners in a variety of styles and sizes. I made the Gardland Table Runner, which is also the table runner from the cover of the book. Due to a sewing error, I had to remake half of the leaves because I sewed them on backwards (oops!), so my table runner hasn’t been quilted yet, but I’m excited to finish it.
I was excited to finally get to use some of Bonnie & Camille’s The Good Life fabric, I loved the flower motif of the table runner, so I picked cute floral and tonal fabrics.
Even though this is called a table runner, because of it’s generous size (22 1/2″ x 62 1/2″) I thought it would also look lovely as a runner on the foot of the bed.
One of my favorite color combinations is aqua and pink. So, of course, I chose those for my flowers. And the gray hearts made a perfect background print. I really enjoyed making this pretty table runner, and I’m excited to use it in my home!

Beautiful job Jennie! I hope you will post pictures once you have quilted it. I have a question. did you make the duvet cover and pillow shams on the bed? I love that look and have thought about doing it for our bed. XOXO
