I was going to make a quick hostess gift for this July 4th weekend, and now I know it will be a table runner! Nothing like waiting till the last minute- but that’s what stash is for! Thank you

[@susanluersman9191]

I am right there with you Yvonne! I learned that from my Mom and we call it the Dorothy’s School of last minute sewing!

[@rainydaydiva6320]

Yvonne, you’re not alone, I seem to wait until the last minute as well. I blame it on the fact that I can’t figure out exactly which pattern I want to use. A couple of years ago I even made a queen size rag quilt in 2.5 days, in purples and teal for my daughters birthday. To make it even harder on myself, i made the backing layout in a pattern that allowed the quilt to be reversible. In the end she loved her new quilt & I was exhausted, but so happy I was able to do it for her birthday. 😊

[@kathyday7911]

I finished my 4th of July runner yesterday! 😊 I lost my beautiful sewing buddy kitty on Monday and I had such a hard time making myself sew!!😥

[@rainydaydiva6320]

[@christinahall3318]

I’m finishing a quilt (actually a throw) that I put away after last year’s 4th of family celebration was cancelled. Did I just pull it out a month ago to finish it? YEP! And 2 days ago figured out I didn’t have enough fabric for the backing and had to order more……..I think it may be a long night! But it is for my SIL who goes all out for this celebration!

[@wayfarinstranger2444]

I am quilting "Christmas in July" so I will be using this pattern for both a Christmas runner and 4th of July runner! Love it!🤗

Super good for left over charms too

[@patriciaguevara8793]

This is wonderful! Not only can I make for myself, but in different colors for my daughters. One daughter has asked for a table runner for her schools fundraiser where she teaches. This will be fabulous!

[@ruthhilsdorf343]

My little table is too small for a runner but I see placemats! Im sitting in my trailer at the rv park in Hamilton, waiting for the shops to open. Just added that charm pack to my shopping list. Going to melt my credit card today!

[@joannebock2885]

I’m so jealous that you will get to visit Hamilton and all their shops. Have a fun time shopping and ogling all those wonderful fabrics. Enjoy on behalf of all us quilters who haven’t been there.

[@patriot8938]

Love the tip about drawing a line. I make a lot of placemats using this method, and sometimes I slide off into oblivion, especially if I am watching TV and not paying attention.

[@traceyhonig4461]

I trim a quilt the same way, using the outside border as a guide. Love a simple pattern, and you can’t go wrong with the red, white and blue! Everyone have a safe and happy 4th of July!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@susanwehe8270]

Lovely patriotic quilt and yes my QAYG pieces seem to sew together but never in a straight line. I like the idea of drawing a line first, such a simple elegant solution

[@cricketsstudios]

Fantastic table runner - I have so many charm packs that need to be used, and this pattern is perfect. Thx Jenny and crew for another fabulous and accomplishable project!

[@sandyvassar9598]

I just watched your video. Its 12:28 in the morning here in Idaho and I can't wait for the sun to come up so I can make this beautiful table runner! Love you Jenny ❤

This is just the idea I needed for a quilt border! It’s a handprint quilt from a Lake Shasta water skiing trip we did with most of our 17 grandchildren, our kids and the fun time we had & to remember by the quilt bordered by ‘the waves’! 🥰

[@gwynnschroeder6934]

I seem to have more charms because I see them and purchase them without a plan for them. Now I can sew away!! I also really like it when the camera is behind Jenny to see the sewing as she does.

[@veracampbell9583]

Jenny this was perfect timing. I want a runner for my tables and was wondering what to make. I can change the fabric for each and be done in no time. Thank you so much for doing this wonderful table runner. God bless y’all.

[@micheleh4016]

Love the QAYG approach. Much as I love my longarmer, a lot of times I want to do it myself. I just don't have the room in my condo to quilt anything very big so QAYG is the answer!

[@makeitsew2757]

Thank you so much 😊 your tutorial was terrific! Start to finish - every step! Your tips on keeping it from getting wonky will Keep me lined up 😆 thank you for all you do for the quilting community ❤️

[@carolbarnes7844]

Love the process. I can see all seasons with this technique. Very clever. Thank you always.

[@suecone2198]

This was good to see the powder to glue the batting and backing together used as I have it but have never used it. This would be a great way to use the powder but also make a great runner. If you used a different season on the back but bound with a color that worked with both sides you could have a two season table runner! Thanks 😊

[@juliemorrison4348]

Interesting construction. Haven't seen this method before but it makes a quick project.👍🇦🇺

[@cathlyndeutsch9209]

You could have brought some of your backing material to the front and used that as your binding instead of trimming it off since it's the same design.

[@ettalanuti7926]

Getting it square would take me forever!

[@debbiebrugman4543]

I use that technique (bring the backing to the front) for making placemats. Saves time plus I hate sewing on binding separately and will do whatever to avoid it lol

I thought the same thing... it'd be a good way to make more than one (gifts, maybe?) by using layer cake pieces that were cut in half. There would be fewer seams too!
