Daffodil Days Table Runner

4/23/2014

 
Daffodil Days Table Runner {by Sarah of Berry Barn Designs}
Welcome back! Yesterday I shared a tutorial for my Daffodil Days Throw Pillow over at Fort Worth Fabric Studio, and today I'm showing you another easy project you can create from the block - a cheery spring table runner!

Using the tutorial, simply piece three blocks instead of one. I skipped the borders and cornerstones that are on the throw pillow when I made my runner, but you could make it with them - whatever you prefer! Then quilt and bind. Voila! A big burst of sunny yellow to warm up your kitchen table.

So would you believe that I got all the way through production, photographs and editing before I noticed that I switched a set of petals between the left and center flowers?! I seriously didn't see it till I started writing up the post - doh! I think I'll chalk it up to a happy accident and live with it : P

Fortunately, the daffodil design lends itself well to a scrappy look. I'd intended my two outer flowers to match, with the center in its own fabrics, but you could try three of the same or every petal different to really make it your own.

And here's a quick shot of the back. 
I used a solid piece of the Blossoms on Blossoms print from Momo's Oh Deer line for Moda. Just as bright and cheery as the front, and perfect for changing from spring to summer colors!
If you'd like to try your hand at one of my Daffodil Days projects, 
be sure to hop over to the tutorial for both the directions and
the downloadable template used to create the block.
Happy spring sewing!

Great tut. Both project are looking great and I'm not even fan of yellow, lol. I'm adding this to my TO DO list, thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Vera! I'm actually not a fan of yellow either, but we have this yellow accent wall in our kitchen of the house we rent, and it's kind of grown on me in that room at least : P

Now this is just what we need after such a drab winter! Sunny and fresh! Love the design, Sarah. And your tutorial is sew easy to follow. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you, Lorna! Seriously - if I don't see a REAL daffodil very soon, I might lose my mind! It's time for sunshine and putting away the winter coats lol.

Congrats on a thorough and clear tutorial! I especially love this as a table runner (I'm more likely to make one of those than pillows for my house). The scrappiness is perfect and I love how you mixed colors.

Thank you, Jess! I used fabric I really love on the back because I usually think of runners as one-sided, but you reminded me to think about the flip when you did yours for two season : )

Sarah, I LOVE the table runner! This is so bright and cheery for spring! You did a wonderful job on the tutorial!!

I kind of love the runner a tad more, but only because it matches my kitchen whereas the throw looks a bit odd in my mostly red/black accented living room : P Thanks, Lindsey!

I'm a huge fan of anything yellow, but this especially! A very clever tutorial and layout - and your "accessories" are perfect! This is definitely going on my make list. :D

Thank you, Sarah! Yellow has never been my favorite, but lately it's been growing on me : )

Saw your tutorial on FW fabric studio the other day, and loved it, but the table runner is over the top. TOO CUTE!! Thanks for the inspiration and fabulous tutorial!

Aww, thank you, Emily! I'm glad you popped over to check it out : ) I'd love to see what you create if you end up making one, too!

Yes, Amy - chasing away the gray is long overdue around here.It's almost May and still just teensy shoots in my garden... hurry up summer!
