Table Runners

I'm taking a break (again) from working on my jacket to make a couple table runners for our church's communion table.  As I suspected it's hard to find fabric for tablecloths at our local Jo Ann store.  Since the only other options (besides online) is Wal-Mart or Hobby Lobby, I decided to buy a nice white tablecloth.  I will be able to get several table runners out of that!  I did purchase some very pretty lace at Jo Ann to sew on the ends.

Our preacher wanted white and lace but no fancy embroidery.  The tablecloth has a small pattern.  I believe it will be simple yet elegant looking.  It should look very nice at the front of the church for communion.

Things have been busy here, so I don't get to sew everyday like I want, but hoping to forge ahead on that jacket very soon!

I am ready to get that done and start on some type of heirloom clothing.  I haven't decided if I will make something for a baby, child or a lady!

So much to learn about couture and heirloom sewing.  I love challenges, so looking forward to learning new techniques!

Thanks for reading along!
