I put together this table runner to try a technique I saw online using a tube of three colors to make the blocks. It worked amazingly well. Now I have to find some backing and quilt it. It is about 75x50 so I might just stitch in the ditch on my regular machine rather than loading it up on the frame.
The instructions for this block can be found at: Tube Quilting on Utube.

Love it Joyce!!
Will you share with us where you found this "technique" online? Sounds interesting! 8-)
Had to stop by and catch up with you and wish you a wonderful 2010!
Oh I remember that video with that technique. It was great and boy this came out fantastic, didn't it? Wow!!!
Very effective! Love the colours.
Beautiful colors, and the simplicity of the pattern really sets them off.
Thanks for posting this table runner and site. The tutorial makes it very easy to follow. Will definitely making one of these.

Great table runner! I have to admit, quilting a table runner is on this winter's "to do" list...will check out the website! Thanks!
That is a great table runner. I don't have a frame, but I have read where frame quilters will baste muslin strips between small projects and load it all as 1 project and quilt away - so maybe it will be easier to make more table runners and quilt them on the frame? Like I said - I am not exactly how it all works, but it seemed like a good idea to me when I read about it! Cheers! Evelyn
A friend recently sent me that link but I haven't had time to look at it yet. I guess I better check it out because I sure like yours! blessings, marlene
