If I had a nice big house I would make them too. I just can't see them in my 4 rooms downstairs house,you know my kitchen/laundry room combo is already cluttered.lol I do see many beautiful ones and would like to make them as a quick project but have no room,after all I am always folding laundry on my table lololololol

I buy them on here from other members just so I have something made by them and I make my own and for gifts too. I use them everywhere.....And I swithc them out all the time. Love the looks on my dining room table and the kudos I get from visiting friends. Can't have enough.

I've never used even One, but see lots of them talked about here. I understand the fact you can use them as a quick Quilt project to learn on but after that they seem useless to me. why not make lap size ones and donate to a charity? Lori K. 8-)

I just made a very pretty spring color one from the 10 minute TableRunner pattern. I use two long ones instead of place mats for the table sides. I stagger two lengthwise on my table for a more formal look. I use a runner on my kitchen counter top. They are easy to toss in the laundry and when I get tired of them I don't mind cutting them up and making potholders or other projects. I use a variety of special fabrics I find on sale to make super nice table runners to put on banquet tables. It's amazing how one small detail makes a big difference in the look of pot luck tables.
