After I finished up a friend's curtain panels, I was on a major sewing kick. I had just purchased this beautiful citron-ish fabric a few weeks ago, and knew it'd tie perfectly into our house...it was just a matter of where I'd use it.
I decided a spring runner for the dining room table would be perfect and got to work. I cut off a piece the fabric...making sure I left plenty of yardage for other projects.
Then I started pinning just like I did with the curtains {except I kept a smaller seam this time} and ran things through the sewing machine.
I'm a big fan of how the yellow pops against our dark wood dining table. I'm just sewwww in love with it. See what I did there? Yup, I'm a nerd.
And don't forget to enter my very first giveaway with Modern Masters!!
