Transform Your Fabric Scraps Into A Fun Patriotic Table Topper!

If you enjoy making scrap quilts and using your scraps, then this will be a great project for you! I used my scraps to make this fun patriotic table runner! Come and join me as I show you how it is done!
Cut one set for each star:
Pinwheel:
2- 4” squares from reds
2- 4” squares from whites
Corner stones:
4- 4” squares from whites
Flying geese:
4- 4”x6” rectangles from whites
8- 3 ¼” squares from blues
***Remember 2 sets for each star!***
6 to 8- 2 ½” by 13” white strips
6 to 8- 2 ½” by 13” red strips

Perhaps a scrappy binding?? Left overs from the strips but all red or mix with some of the blues in the star. You would have to audition them. The table runner looks great!! I love it❤️

Thank you!

[@lindascott1046]

That's pretty. I would have red, white, blue, white, red stripes and blue backing and binding for a different look. There are so many variations, it would be hard to decide.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Yes!! So many options!!!

This table runner is beautiful thank you. I am also commenting here regarding an older video of yours called "how to manage and store your fabric scraps." I DO have a bin under my desk for 'dog scraps" but I noticed that you throw many into yours that people like myself who use teeny tiny scraps would love to use! My leader/ender is postage stamp blocks that are only 1 1/2" squares. Have you considered having a small flat rate box under your table for the larger scraps that you are not able to fit in your containers? You could sell them for a small fee...plus the postage and still have some left over for the puppies!!! Please let me know as I think this is a great way for us to get more assorted scraps in our quilts. Happy sewing!

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I would be more than happy to do that!

[@cherylhumphries7950]

The red striped

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thanks for sharing your favorite one!

[@cindybenoit3452]

Red stripe

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thanks for sharing your fave!!!

[@sandan2358]

I love floating stars! I can see this being made into a quilt. Is there a formula on how to figure out the size squares if I want to make a different size floating flying geese?

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Not that I know of

[@thesimplequilter7499]

What I did was this: Measure the pinwheel block (Mine measured 6") Divide 6 by 2 = 3 add 1/4 inch so the square size for one star point was a 3 1/4" square I think that will work for any size block.... another example: If the block had been 10" then the blue squares would have had to be 5 1/4" each Hope this helps!

[@normatulloch376]

Red stripe

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Red seems to be the favored choice!! Thanks for sharing!
