Christmas Table Runner FREE Sewing Pattern and Tutorial

This Christmas table runner is a good project for those trying to learn quilting and it is also my way of getting to know my new sewing machine. I have decided to make a project that will allow me to get to know the machine while practicing my quilting skills.

This Christmas table runner is a simple design I got from last summer trip to Eastern Europe in the lovely country of Lithuania.  I saw the table runner in a shop dedicated to Santa Claus and all things Christmas.  The owner of the shop was sewing a table center with a very old mechanical machine.  I asked her how she made it and she was very happy to explain.  She said it was an old pattern that her grandmother had taught her and so it was a common thing to sew if you are just starting at quilting.

The table runner has three flowers.  I have used two different colors of fabric, golden white on one side and red on the other.

The measurement of this Christmas table runner is 41″ X 15″.
