Hi there!
This sweet table runner…
It’s really quite the combo of yummy, and summery bold color. Yay! I even dyed the velvet fabric for the flower centers myself. The rest of the hand dyed fabrics came from one of my favorite artists, Miss Vicki Welsh, as I have spoken of so often in my works. Although I have been delving into modern fabric styles, the hand dyed will always have my heart! I posted about the humble beginnings of this MarveLes original, back last summer… you can more all about it — click here if you wanna!
I took those three blocks and it became this runner. I quilted it with a variegated YLI thread in greens this time around. I also began with a tiny, tiny stipple stitch around the previously trapunto-quilted pink petals. Then I graduated to a smaller feather motif. I do L O V E the green thread on this background. And really, how can I ever say that I would tire of a gorgeous pink and deep yellow greens with a hit of that vibrant aqua blue saying “come hither!” Not this time, for sure!
It’s just P R E E T Y.

As usual, your quilting is exquisite.
