Winnie (Red Tractor Girl) is getting ready for Fall with her beautiful candles, and that gave me the idea to start a Fall Season Table Runner Swap. The fall season is versatile - general season-changing leaves and the Halloween and Thanksgiving holidays are all possibilities - you can even make a runner that is reversible so two themes/holidays are covered.
You will make one table runner to swap with one partner. Show us your creativity. I know we have some very creative gals here. When partners are posted, please contact your partner.
Here's a link to lots of free and easy patterns: http://www.craftsy.com/patterns/quilting?secondaryItemType=Table%20Accessory&sortBy=price
And a link to Pinterest:
https://www.pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=no%20sew%20table%20runner
If you want a copy of the 10-minute (called 1 hour sometimes) table runner pattern just send me an email.
When you sign up, please send me your name/address/phone, and I will send the info to the partners. I will only use the phone number if you are AWOL.
Signups start: August 3
Signups end: August 24 (I must have your name/address/phone information by this date)
Partners Posted and email sent: August 25
Mail out by: September 1
Start making your table runner now, so you don't have to rush to complete it by the mail-out date.
I hope you decide to join in!
We have an uneven number of swappers, so I just went down the list and you send to a different person than you receive from:
Linda Olivera send to Denise Ann Christiansen
Marilyn Godfrey send to Maryellen Benton
Maryellen Benton send to Shannon Hudson
Shannon Hudson send to Linda Olivera
Denise Ann Christiansen send to Marilyn Godfrey
I will send out the address of your swappee. Thanks for participating.
I'm also thinking about Winter/Christmas and Valentines/St.Pats/Spring themed swaps.

Wow, Maryellyn, thanks for reminding me of what I sent you. There is no problem with your time line. I have had some issues of late myself.

Marilyn, Finally pictures of your amazing work!.jpg?v 20462059)
Now ladies how perfect is this! There are two tablerunners. Not one. I placed the pumpkin one in the middle of the fall one and oh my they look fantastic! I love them and have already gotten so many compliments on them. I can separate them and use them on two tables. They are just perfect. Thank you so much for the gift and making this swap so special for me. Sorry the pictures were so late. It was a rough September but October is looking much better. Hugs, Maryellen

LOL! Funny thing - that's where MY sewing machine is, too! I have a craft event coming up in early Oct and will be gone a week in between so am trying to finish some more items that will hopefully sell. LOL! So - the dining room is a sewing room right now.

Linda,
You did a great job! I can use it for sure, if I don't get the sewing machine off the dining room table (who knows) I can use it on my coffee table, it would be cute in either place.
Thank you!

So glad you like the table runner, Denise. I had to decide how to quilt it since the patterns didn't line up on both sides. I hope you can use it for both Halloween and Fall.

I was excited to see a box at my doorstep today!

Thank you for the super cute table runner, both sides are wonderful. I almost bought some Halloween fabric today when I was checking out a quilt shop today! Thank you for the gingerbread Chapstick I'm going to need it soon I'm sure!

Linda, I know why the candy corn is not in the photo. Hadlee wanted me to buy a bag for my four year old class. I told her they are lively enough as is.
Thank you Denise Ann for the package I received from you today. I was driving to see my husband in the hospital, and my granddaughter asked to open it for me. We both oohed and aahed over the cute table runners and tucks. Thank you so much.

Oh, Shannon - it is plenty long. I have 2 square tables side by side in my dining room and it fits great. I'll take a picture to send you when my sewing machine is put away. LOL!
Thank you again!

I received my Fall table runner from Shannon today. I love it, Shannon. And she tucked in a bag of candy corn. That isn't in the picture - anyone know why? LOL!
Thanks, Shannon

Partners have been posted. Please NOTE, however, that because there were only 5 of us, you will send to one farmgirl and receive from another. Please post pictures when you receive your runner. And remember, tucks are not required.
ENJOY!

Linda - I had to laugh at your last comment to me.... I am guessing autocorrect changed busy to easy ;) With that said, please add me to the list! I am not a Halloween person at all, but enjoy Fall and Thanksgiving, so I would like to give this swap a whirl. Thanks :) I think you already have my address and phone number (maybe not the latter), but I will send it to you just in case :)
