Sashiko Table Runner

June 14, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 9 Comments

I love how many bloggers are starting to share the process of how their designs developed as it gives a great insight into the design process. I was looking through my photos and realised that I had never shared how my Fizz Table Runner (pictured above)  came about. 
I purchased the Moda Lamour Circles Fabric as it reminded me of sashiko stitching, and then stitched some overlapping circles on linen to compliment the fabric. Below is a progress shot of the red table runner. It is too dark now to photograph the completed runner which takes pride of place on my dining room table. 

Stitch magazine wanted the runner made up in more earthy tones to fit with their issue theme so it was fun to remake it in the chocolate colourway.

I purchased the red Moda lamour fabric from Ladybug Quilt Shop.  The Ladybug Quilt Shop is having a  20% off sale from  June 13th – 21st. Enter the code Lucinda4th at checkout.

    They are both nice. The black one would fit perfect in my livingroom.

    Have a nice day.

    I adore this table runner! So simple and interesting to look at. I love it in both colors, especially with those accent fabrics on the ends. Perfect! Definitely want to try this technique.
