Mini Spinning Star Hot-Pad-Table Runner in Blue, Teal, Aqua for Megan

Just finished binding this small, insulated table runner to give to a friend. Last September we had a service auction at church to raise money for some local charities. I volunteered to make a hot pad/table runner, winner provides the supplies. After this friend won, we discussed patterns and such. She really liked the one I made for my brother and sister-in-law a while back. The next step was for her to bring me some fabrics. Then I forgot about it and I’m guessing she forgot, too. One day in May, I happened upon a note that reminded me that she had not received her promised table runner. Then I happened upon a table topper like this only bigger, too big for her table.

So, in typical Virginia fashion, I figured out my own pattern to be the size I wanted and used fabric from my stash to make this. It was not exactly what she had asked for, so I guess there’s a chance that she won’t like it and I’ll have to make a new one, but I don’t think that will be the case.  (It wasn't - I gave it to her and she said it was perfect.) Freehand quilting in cool gray 3 Glide thread.
