Anyway, I decided to give away one of my CLASS SAMPLES that I made a few years ago. It's my "Seven Strip Holiday Table Runner" it's bright, it's happy, and it's fun! I added a cute "Trick or Treat Bowl" with Halloween Candy inside along with a darling wire spider that you can't see too well and then I tied it up with cellophane, a bow, and a Halloween BOO ornament. I'm hoping it will fetch at least $50 (min. bid) for JDRF.
7 Strip Holiday Table Runner
Trick or Treat Bowl for Halloween
I taught this class for two years at Quilts Etc. It was one of their most popular and versatile beginning quilt classes. My students loved it because they could go home with a finished quilt top and some could even get as far as putting together the quilt sandwich to have ready for machine quilting when they got home. I think I've made 20 or 30 of these table runner's out of different fabric groupings and for every holiday season.
Here's my fall runner that's on my table right now.

I just came across your blog from quilting bloggers.
I am one of your students that took your seven strip table runner class! I know live in a different state but still love making the table runner for various holidays.
thanks julie
That is so cool Julie that you found me in blogworld. This is probably one of my favorite, easiest, and most satisfying quilts I've ever made.
It's just so much fun to take some of your favorite fabric lines and put it into a table runner. That way you can enjoy it for years.
I haven't pulled them out for a few years so it was fun to have a look at all of them. I'm going to have to make a new one when I can find the time.
I love your tablerunners and would love the directions. The fall colors are so inviting. I am inviting you to participate in a Fall into Fall Quilters Blog giveaway that I am hosting. Come on over and check it out.
That look is just spectacular. I've gotta go to Lehi and get me some of those birdies!
