Long thin quilt / Table runner

Runner on the table
Hi!! I just realized that haven't written on the blog this year so I would like to wish  everyone a happy and creative  2013.

Now about my new project!!
I am sure you have guessed by now that I love my scraps. I keep them for years until the right idea and opportunity  comes around.  

This runner was made with the trimmings   of a  triangle quilt made for my daughter (pictures below). After trimming the  square pieces made from triangles I  was left with a number of rectangular stirips with a small triangle on the corner  that were just too cute to throw away. There were not that many pieces to make a quilt so I had to think  about how  to work  the project so as to 'expand' the end result.  I chose a neutral fabric to connect the small pieces together and proceeded to piece them longways. This produced 10  long strips about 1 inch wide. In another "stretching exercise" a plain strip was added between these strips. This  result was a long thin quilt(102 x 13 inch (2.60m x .33m)) that looked great  as a table runner.
