Vintage Modern Sampler Runner

2/5/2018

I bought a vintage table runner from my friend Ann.  I wanted to keep the vintage charm but add some quilt pieces to it.  I sewed on a half Dresden plate first.  Then I added some vintage yoyos.  After that I made 4 Cathedral blocks and inserted vintage fabric into the windows.  Next came the wildflower piece, which is new and came from a tea towel I just bought from Under A Tin Roof. (They sell online and have wonderful items)!  The last thing I added was a purchased flower.  I think I will embroider a stem and leaves coming down from the flower.  This will make a pretty table runner, or in my case might end up on a chair or part of a fabric pieced headboard.  It was fun playing with all the different materials and textures.  I'm ready to start another project!
