Rebecca's table runner

I made a table runner for my daughter, and she wanted it to match her carpet.
Here are 3 separate views of her carpet...



These are 5 of the colors swatches that she sent me. 
I chose them for the main colors of the table runner.





I chose this color for the sashing, it matched up to Kona avocado perfectly!


I went to my local quilt shop and matched the color swatches to all the bolts of fabric.
I bought a half yard of each piece, and a yard of the Kona.
I cut 5" squares of the 5 main fabrics and cut some of them in half.  
The sashing strips are l l/2" wide.
I used a pattern that I got from my favorite quilt shop, Pine Needles in West Jordan, Utah during one of their quilt shop hops.


I put a 5" strip of some pretty "Liberty" style fabric on each end, with some matching rick rack.


I love how happy and bright this table runner is.
I backed it with leftover pieces.


It looks great on my black dining room table and shows off the photos of 2 of my sweet grandchildren, Maisie and Benjamin.

Pine Needles Quilt Shop

I want to show you one of my favorite quilt shops.
Pine Needles has relocated to a new building at Gardner Village in West Jordan, Utah.


I just love the butter yellow walls with the faux fireplace and pink upholstered chair. Doesn't this look inviting? It's the first thing you see when you walk into the shop.


I love chevron, notice all the chevron in the quilts?
Isn't the hardwood floor gorgeous?


What a cute quote!

Look at the vintage kitchen utensils, overflowing with fat quarters.

The store is so much more spacious, with eye candy everywhere!


Isn't this "modern asterisk" quilt lovely, it's being offered as a class.


This bed quilt is adorable! I bought a piece of every single bolt at the bottom of the bed, Tasha Noel's "Red Riding Hood".


My 5 year old grand daughter Kennedy came with me to the quilt shop, she loves to look at fabric! She is standing in the room where kids are allowed to play. There is a little wooden kitchen with play food, blocks and little wooden dolls to dress.


What sweet little aprons.


I've only shown you a little of the quilt shop, there is so much more!
If you are ever in the area, I would encourage you to visit! It is definitely worth it, there is so much to inspire you at this shop :)
