Little Charmer #4

Continued confessions of a charm pack junkie~

Here is my latest charm pack accomplishment.  This time I used Creative Grids Charming 5 Square Template #5 (Set On Point Square).  (Have I mentioned that I love these templates?) I used the pattern that is included with the template and one charm pack of "Fa La La La La" by French General.  To complete the tablerunner, you will need 1/2 yd of fabric for backing and 1/4 yd for binding. 

 

 

I did not do a traditional binding.  I used Jean's method of making a Frame Facing, which makes the table runner very "reversible."

 

   

 

 

 

 

  I was feeling pretty lazy at the time, and didn't want to hand sew the facing to the back.  What I did instead:  I used my sewing machine's blanket stitch and was very careful to keep the facing straight.  I like the added touch this detail gives to the French General look.

Beautiful country home colors! I love the table runner -- might have to steal that one from you.
