This is another kitchen project using the fabrics I bought at Hobby Lobby inspired by my Lemon Grass Fiestaware. I also created a Menu Board and Burlap Wreath with these same fabrics.
Inspired by all the burlap crafts I have see lately, I designed and stitched up this table runner and matching napkins for my kitchen table. I got a new sewing machine for Christmas which made putting this together a breeze.
For the table runner
1. I cut the burlap the length I wanted (if I were to do it again, I would hem the ends for a more finished edge.)
2. Cut, press and hem the floral fabric to the dimensions of the burlap. My kitchen table is really wide, so I made my table runner wider than average width. Keep in mind the width of your table for this step.
3. Sew floral pieces to burlap piece. Press down seams.
4. I then stitched matching orange grosgrain ribbon over the seams where the burlap and fabric met, giving a much more finished appearance.
5. Press and put on your table!
For the napkins -
1. Cut fabric in 17" squares.
2. Press a 1/4" double hem.
3. Sew hem, press and use.
Here is another view of the finished project -

Jenny -- thanks so much for the dimensions for your napkins. I've made some in the past, but wondered if there were too big/small. I think they might make good gifts too -- especially if partnered with your cute table runner! Thanks for sharing! I'm new to your blog, but intend on following it! (I'm from NC originally, but now live in WI!)
