    R-sea, it turned out great. Beautiful gold and blue fabric. There will be many variations to see if more people try this pattern. I enjoyed piecing this one and will make a few more of these for different seasons.

    Thanks Rhonda!

    You're welcome ube and anyone else who makes one. I am having fun designing tablerunners. Which could also be used as wall hangings depending on the size you make it.

    I turned my favorite bookmark pattern into a tablerunner. Haven't written a pattern yet but it won't be very complicated LOL A friend of mine said you know the quilt block doesn't have to be 12 1/2" - I've always aimed for that size as a general rule. so I took her advice and here is my Boston Braid Tablerunner. I'm debating on the size the blocks should be. 8" would make it 16" x 56" without borders. Course you could use 7 blocks as I did or you could use 5 or 6 to make it not so long. These are boston blocks. the color and placement gives you the braid look.

    This is another bookmark pattern I used alot. I love how it looks in a tablerunner.

    I spend wayyy too much time in my EQ playing LOL

    Rhonda, these are very nice. Did you or do you publish them for purchase on a wider scale or are they just fun for you because they are really nice and worthy of publication.

    These will be free patterns on my website. I'll also post them for free here on the board.
    I started working on patterns several years ago. I have learned alot and improved my patterns over time.

    I will eventually offer them on my website but for now they are free. making money isn't my first priority. I will always offer some for free no matter what I decide to do otherwise. I love sharing too much and I know many can't afford to buy. so I prefer to make at least some of them available so people can enjoy them without worrying about money.

    I just want to see people enjoying what I love to design. That's my pay back.

    LOL I host the wh swap and now I'm offering some wh ideas LOL I have a ton of designs I just have to get them written into patterns
