Linda's Table Runners

My friend Linda gave me fabric left over from her draperies and asked me to make somehting for her.  It took me a year to find the perfect match.  Thank goodness she wasn't in a hurry.  The pattern I used is very basic and contemporary.  The fabric I added to hers was the red and gold striped and the black squares.  This came out very beautiful and rich looking.  I think she was very pleased with it.  There is also some olive green in the stripes and gold accents.

This runner had red and gold striping and darker gold embroidered

fabric.  I found a deeper red/wine colored fabric to accent.  This is

very rich looking, the colors in these photos do not do it justice.
