This earthy color palette and graphic, geometric pattern was inspired by a laundry basket I found on pinterest, of all things. I love the simplicity of the design, and the spear shape really appeals to me. I learned a few things about half rectangle triangles while making it, let me tell you. We are not close. But they are so pretty!
The table runner is quite generous at 22 x 65 inches. It would be perfect on a large dining table, or over the end of a twin bed, as a bed runner. You can find this runner in my etsy shop, which is now open again. It is safe to say I will not be making this design again soon, so grab this one-of-a-kind piece while it is available.
I agree about the HSRs! I have one of my bees doing them, which has been my first experience with them. But they ARE lovely! And I really like your runner!
ReplyDeleteI like your table runner. Especially I like your triangles.

Oops. Thanks Kangastuksia. Correct link now.
ReplyDeleteI think I know which basket inspired you: http://www.fermlivingshop.com/products/spear-basket
ReplyDeleteIt's been in one of my Pinterest board for a while now. It inspired me to do a table runner as well using HRTs: http://www.thecharmingneedle.com/2014/06/half-rectangle-triangle-tutorial-on-sew.html. The layout is quite different from the basket though. I really like your runner. Great color way. I definitely want to try making something along those line someday. It's quite funny that were are presenting those on the same day.
Oh I love this! It would be such a nice design as place mats too!
