Bread and Butter Table Runner

Picture your holiday table dressed in something you made yourself: crisp points, perfect diamonds, and a runner that draws compliments all season long. In this two-session class, you'll turn that picture into a finished piece you can't wait to show off.

The Bread and Butter Table Runner is a classic for good reason. It's elegant, endlessly adaptable, and once you've made it, it becomes a go-to pattern you'll come back to every time the seasons change or a special gift is needed. Swap the fabrics and it's a whole new look for spring, fall, or any celebration in between.

What You'll Learn:

• Precision hourglass units: Make them slightly oversized, then trim them to perfection, a technique that will raise the quality of everything you piece from here on.
• Setting triangles and on-point blocks: Learn how to set blocks on the diagonal for that striking, dynamic layout.
• Borders and binding: Finish your runner with clean, professional edges.

New to precision piecing? You're in the right place. If you're a confident beginner, you're ready to jump in. We'll guide you step by step, and you'll leave with new skills, a beautiful runner, and a pattern you'll love for years.

Save your spot and get ready to make something special for your table!
