    Here are some pics of the runners that I made for a customer of mine. He lives by himself in this big house and his mom said he needed something to class it up a little. He hasn't seen them yet, so I hope he likes them. There are still a couple more pieces to the set, plus placemats.
    I hope the pics aren't too blurry. I had a hard time getting them just right.

    Tricia, I really like those, I'm currently making table runners and coasters for our VFD fund raiser in Sept.

    Those are beautiful. I enjoyed being able to see the way the borders were constructed and I love the embellishments.

    Thanks to all!! The points on the stars hexagons are folded fabric and held down with beads. They are real easy to do.
    All of his measurements were totally different, so I designed as I went along trying to keep each piece uniform.
    Again, Thanks, now I'm working on several pieces that have wolves as the motif for a lady in Colorado.

    Wow,
    I love all of those. The first picture are those hot pads. What is he going to do with the ones in the first picture. I liked the blue border. You work is very professional. Thanks for sharing

    PJ, Thanks, The first pics are actually large table runners. One of them will go on a corner on his kitchen counter and the other will cover a small antique table.

    Thanks, Sharon, And no he didn't pick them. I went to his house and looked at his furniture and picked colors that would fit in. He has cream colored leather couches with a deep mahogony wood finish on all of his tables. So I had to pick something that wasn't too flowery, but had some kind of texture. I added the dk. blue just to give it a manly feel.
    It makes me feel good that you all like them, so now I think he will too!!
