Lake Stars Table Runner

Hi quilter, how are you?

I want to introduce you to my Lake Stars Table Runner project. When I launched my Lake Stars Quilt project, I was imagining what a table runner made with the Lake Stars block would look like and using fabric colors that I love: blue and yellow. I love everything that refers to the sun, summer, nature, earth. In other words, colors like the blue of the sky and the sea, the green of nature, the yellow of the sun, the ochre of the earth, and so on. And that's how I put together this combination of print and fabric to design and assemble the table runner!

I knew I wanted to use the navy blue floral print as the main color, which would set the tone for the table runner. So I used this print on the tips of the stars in the Estrelas do Lago block and again on the outer edge. I also used other tones to match the tones of this floral fabric: egg yellow, gold yellow, green and gray. And I personally loved the result of the block.

Joining the blocks was the most fun part! Because you can arrange them in a square shape, perfect for a round or square table, or in a rectangle shape, for a rectangular table! Unlike the Quilt's Lake Stars , on the table runner I chose not to add spaces between the blocks and so the result was that, when joining the blocks, a square is formed between the stars and the effect is beautiful!

I opted for a table runner and added a narrow border around the blocks and a wider outer border on the table runner! I loved the result! The summery and vibrant colors look great for a room like a dining table or breakfast nook! Did you like it?

Below I will show you the versions of my testers. They did a great job and looked beautiful with different compositions!
