Lots of Love Runner

Leanne has used 28 fat eighths of coordinated print fabrics to create this runner that can be used for either a table, or across the bottom of a bed.

Basket, Four-patch and Crisscross blocks are combined to make this runner in black, red and white fabrics. You can substitute the fabric colours and even change up the quantities of each block. And if you are really loving it, make more blocks and extend it to a lap or bed quilt!

This pattern is very easy to sew. Apart from straight stitching with squares and half-square triangles, you can have a little fun making bias strips and appliquéing them in place for the basket handles.

Finished size: 53cm x 155cm (21in x 61in)

Finished block size: 5in
