Category

This strips-and-half-squares quilted table runner is such a smart, stylish project – and it’s easier than it looks! Using just two contrasting fabrics, you’ll create a plaited design with lots of visual movement and clean lines. Start by cutting 4.5″ squares, then trim your half-square triangles to 2.5″, and pair them with 2.5″ wide strips for a smooth piecing process. This runner shines in solids, but you can totally use prints for extra flair. The finished size is 40″ x 14″, making it the perfect handmade centerpiece for your dining table or a thoughtful handmade gift. It’s beginner-friendly, scrap-friendly, and such a satisfying sew!
