I work part time at JoAnn Fabrics. I had a customer come in and tell me she was making table runners. I was surprised at how little fabric she had me cut for each table runner. She told me about your pattern! I have some Jewish friends that I want to make table runners for. I have beautiful fabric that I really want the pattern to show through; it’s by Robert Kaufman and has beautiful dreidels, gold coins, etc. on it for Hanukkah. This pattern is just what I need! Thank you for sharing!

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Thank you so much for your kind words! It's always amazing to hear that my patterns are being used and appreciated. I hope your friends love the table runners you make for them. Wishing you all the best!

[@joycev1105]

Love this pattern. I changed it up a bit. But it came out really well, I think. I digitized two separate sized blocks for my embroidery machine. That took longer than the actual sewing of the runner!

[@alastairwood1651]

Tamela! I took the day off to ready myself for a craft fair and you ROCK. I love following you. I want to make a oven towel holder to make the runner. Do you have that? BTW, I love that ornament of day 3. You are a joy.. THANKS

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Aaaahhhh! That’s so exciting Lutisha! I love craft fairs as I am sure you could have guessed. I don’t have a towel holder tutorial or oven mitt tutorial YET but they are on my to do list for sure. And thanks for the kind words🥰it is so nice to hear from people that my videos are helpful! Happy sewing 🧵

[@juliewoods3650]

[@SherBear88]

Forget the table runner for the moment…..OMGOODNESS!! How do you make the top that you’re wearing⁉️…That is what I want to know‼️That has to be one the CUTEST tops I have ever seen!!!! Puff sleeves, and their ruffle detail a long sleeves so cute! WANT!!!

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

You are so sweet, Thank-you! Sadly I did not make it and bought it so long ago I can’t remember where I got it!

[@brendadoyle9743]

Hi, I love this and it seem so easy, by any chance are there written instructions available, I want to give them to my Mother, she is not on line and needs to read things in order to follow them. Thanks so much.

[@deanaredd368]

I got the height, but what should the length be? Thank you, Super cute

[@user-ww9rb6of3d]

This easy. Will fabric stire cut the size for your runner. Can tell me the size vof material again went to fast to catch the size. Thank you so much. Maria

[@vickibrown7391]

What length does this finish out at? Want to make one but need to be sure its long enough for my table . Thanks

[@lisab9650]

March 24 What does the back of the runner look like after stitch in the ditch?

[@katewaters5092]

Love it. What are the finished dimensions?

[@laurieramsay9358]

13" x what ever length you cut (point to point) less seam allowances of 1/2" total

[@susansaffery1469]

Hi Tamara ! I found your videos a few days ago and am obsessed- I have watched 2 of them over and over ! I want to make SO MANY of your beautiful patterns ! I am starting with the 10 minute table runner and I have a question- I am using fabric that has "squares" on it with little snowman heads inside the squares and I don't want to cut through their faces so if I did the inside strip at 10" instead of 9" would I made the other piece 20" instead of 18" to compensate ? I have had this fabric for years and don't want to mess it up ! Thank you SO MUCH for making these projects seem easy enough that I am excited to try them on my own ! Susan 💗

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Hi Susan! I am so glad you have found my tutorials. If you don't want to cut into the snowman heads you could cut a 10" wide section for sure. But also remember to account for the seam allowance as that too will "cut" into the snowmen. Changing the outer fabrics measurements will end up adjusting the width of the boarder fabric. So if you want it narrower then no adjustments are needed. If you want the boarder to be thicker then yes, you would add some inches to the back fabric as well to compensate. I hope that helps. Another option is to cut the backing fabric a bit larger then needed attach it to one end of the center fabric and then turn it right side out to see how wide of a boarder you want before cutting it to the correct size and sewing the other seam. Happy Sewing!

[@susansaffery1469]

I finished it and I love it ! Wish I could attach a picture to show you how it turned out ! Next project is one of your rag quilts 💕 !!! Thanks again for all your great tutorials 😊 !!!

[@Marla.22]

I dont get the yardage.. easier for me to know the measurement of the material. I saw 18 and 9 inch on screen, is that the size? small tablerunner if thats it

[@carolmyers3883]

If I want to make it longer can I just add equal amounts to each fabric?

[@JoanniaPritt-se8kh]

Thanks in just learning how to saw so any info is help to me thanks

[@erinandrews2894]

How do I make it longer, when you use width of fabric.

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Hi Erin, you would just buy your fabric the length you want and cut the fabric accordingly. You will just end up with more fabric you could use for other projects. Like matching placemats☺️

[@susanolson3902]

Could you tell me the exact measurements of each piece of fabric!😊 Thank you!

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Hi Susan. The measurements in the video should help you make the runner. I suppose the only measurement I didn’t give was the selvage to selvage. That measurement is often 42”. So your runner will end up around 41” in length when you are finished with it. Hope that helps, and happy sewing 🧵

[@littleluluscraps]

I totally understand why you are asking because why would you need a quarter of a yard if you are going to cut it to 9" it kind of doesn't make sense to me. She didn't show with her fingers what dimension by what dimension when saying cut it to 9" high and the other to 18" high. Is WOF x 9" WOF x 18"?

[@staceyp2248]

I am also very confused by the measurements. 😕

[@sherylyoungpang2422]

How can you make one without the pointed ends?? With the border all around

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Hi Sheryl, I will work on a tutorial for that. It’s a great idea!!!

[@sallygarcia8345]

How about making this in a placemat

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Sally! That is such a good Idea....I am going to work on that!

[@shifairam1399]

Mam tell me the length and width?

[@shifairam1399]

White fabric length nd with tell me

[@josephineallison2462]

Lovely
