    Default Not-quite-Christmas table runner

    I love making Celtic designs with bias and when I had quite a lot of bias left from my last quilt, I decided to make three blocks for a table runner and four for a square topper. I finished the runner yesterday just in time for a craft show I am involved in this Saturday. I'll finish the topper when I find the time! The sashing and border fabric was one that had been in my "stash" for quite some time and it seemed perfect for this project.

    Just beautiful!!!! I love the look of celtic knots, and actually tried it once. I abandoned the project. Placement was off and my strips wavered in width. My hat is off to you!!!!

    Looks great! So that's bias tape, not "normal" appliqué? Have to try that...

    It's super pretty! Did you do all the knots by hand with hidden stitches? Great job.
