We're completing our Tute-Happy Summer series today with a tutorial for a jewel-toned Stair Stepper Runner by Connie from from Freemotion by the River. Connie used the bold prints from the Ro Gregg's Marblehead Gemstones, Jewels and Quartz collection. Enjoy the tutorial and then find the details at the bottom of this post for a chance to win a bundle of Gemstones, Jewels and Quartz prints to play with!
Hi, I'm Connie from Freemotion by the River and I have another easy table runner tutorial to share with you.
The size of this table runner is 14" x 27".
I picked six fabrics from the fat quarter bundle and also used muslin for the neutral squares.
- From each of the 6 fabrics cut 2 - 2'' strips by the longest side of the fat quarter (22 inches) then sub-cut into 2'' x 3 1/2'' rectangles. You will need 45.
- Cut the muslin into 3 1/2'' strips the width of the fabric, then sub-cut to 18 - 3 1/2'' x 3 1/2'' squares. You will need 18.
- Sew with a 1/4" seam allowance. Join pieces together as shown below.
- Sew one 2'' x 3 1/2'' rectangle to a 3 1/2'' square
- Sew two 2'' x 3 1/2'' rectangles together on the 2'' side
- Sew two 2'' x 3 1/2'' rectangles to a 3 1/2' square on the 3 1/2'' sides
Thanks Connie!
