This wall hanging is one of three projects I made in 2016 incorporating the block design Spinners by Heather Peterson of Anka’s Treasures. This post gives the background on the making of the runner, begun at a quilt retreat in June and completed in November 2017. Binding the runner in the high contrast dark green batik really highlights the curves. Using the free Mini Mod Tiles pattern from Sew Kind of Wonderful, I made this wintry table runner, cutting the outer corners to match the interior curves. Mini Mod Tiles Table Runner Mini Mod Tiles Runner (2017) 1, 2018 and this one dated April 19 describing the quilting. It measures 16″ x 59″.įor a closer look at the kangaroos and the other fabrics I used, check out my first post dated Feb. I quilted this myself with a combination of free-motion quilting in the blocks with circles and straight line quilting in the end pieces. The fourth circle from the top has an extra ring around it because the kangaroo wasn’t quite big enough to fill the space. If you look carefully, you’ll see a kangaroo in each circle - and you’ll understand the name.

This table runner/wall hanging was made using my own Full Moon Rising pattern. For details and close-ups of all four versions, as well as a confession as to which is my favorite, click here. That said, I plan to make a second winter version that has no red and green in it at all. The fabrics in my winter version are evocative of the holidays without being overtly Christmas-y.

You should be able to tell that the first three represent spring, summer, and fall. Winterwood is the one on the far right representing - predictably - winter.

I’ve completed the fourth and final table runner/wall hanging in my seasonal kaleidoscope series based on my pattern Season to Taste.
