Needles-n-Pins Stitcheries: Tulip Tablerunner Tutorial

Still some spring left and in some parts the tulips are still blooming. I thought today we would look at making a cute tulip table runner. This tutorial comes from Southern Fabrics and I thought this would be a great way to use up some of those Spring and pastel fabrics that you have in your stash. I have made a table runner similar to this and it is very easy to make and adds to your spring decor. So get those machines cranked up and pull out all that fabric and make one of these table runners. :)

Happy sewing!

Colleen :)
