Quilting: new and old tablerunner
12 kudoz

new and old tablerunner

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Classic


Materials

fabrics

What was your inspiration?

A fine Lady gave me a tablecloth saying, that the big blue crossstiches were made by her mother (the lady is 73 herself!) and that she cant use it anymore. So I decided to wait for the right moment to fix it into sewing and quilting and thats the result. A modern tablerunner with old crossstiching.

What are you most proud of?

That Im bringing the handwork of a generation of my grandgrandmother into today!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Dont throw away old handcraft!
