Drop Cloth Table Runner



                         Ever since I made my ruffled chair cushions

             here  I wanted to make a ruffled TABLE RUNNER.

                  Over the summer on a rainy day
                            I did just that. 







Now for all my newbie friends a drop cloth is a painters drop cloth that is 100% cotton and is so easy to sew with and 
soooooo inexpensive.......





Have I mentioned that I'm in Love with drop cloth.....

 Here's a tip. Make sure you wash it in hot water and I always add a bleaching agent. White Brite.

Here in Canada I purchased my drop cloth at Lowes.
I always buy the largest size. It has so many uses.
The White Brite  @ Wal Mart.

I love the way it hangs...









I love the way it looks.....







I love that I was able to use leftovers from my ruffled chair cushions.......

Want to know how I made this cute table runner.

Well drop back later this week and I'm posting a tutorial.

See with the little bit of fabric that I had left over I made these cute little pumpkins.......






Yes I will also post a tutorial on making these as well.

Now run out there and purchase your drop cloth and be ready for sewing day......

             As always thanks for visiting!
