    Has anyone made a bejeweled tablerunner with 60 degree triangles?
    I am going to a bridal shower tomorrow and I would like to make a personalized one for the bride. Of course, I don't own the pattern and I fell in love with it, as it is perfect for the fabrics i have. So i have to "wing" it, but I could use a little advice on how you sew these triangles together. :-/
    I know i could cut the triangles individually and stitch them, which i may end up doing, but this pattern is made with jelly roll strips - 2 strips sewn together on one side, and then cut (i think).

    this is a pic of the runner

    I would cut and sew them individually and then into rows :D:D:D
    I would stack the jelly rolls and cut 4 at once...

    If anyone knows where this pattern can be found, I'd be interested in knowing.

    You might want to starch your strips first as you will be working with lots of bias.

    Sorry, I was replying to Cat 18 who was looking for the pattern. I should
    have used some quotes. :oops:

    Good luck finishing the quilt by tomorrow but even if it's not done, you
    can always give it later. It's the good thought that counts. :D

    thanks! no need to apologize! I work as a consultant for Quilter's Paradise, so I asked them to get the pattern for me (and anyone else who would like it) on Monday.
    And I already have a gift for the bride...but i got this idea in my head that a personalized runner would be nice.
    Do you do that too:?: i am hoping I am not the only one who is nuts :!:
    Anyway, I have something "in the works". I've no idea how it will turn out, but I am on my way. DH and I were just "drawing" equilateral 60 degree triangles. He likes to contribute! ;-)
