For years I have been making my siblings a
Patriotic table runner or topper and giving them
on July 4th.
This year I went back and forth about what design to use...
started one design and immediately knew it would take
waaayyy too long to make it, so went back to the
drawing board.
Then, I saw this block on The Colorful Fabriholic's blog.
Jan calls it Scrappy Serendipity.
This block was fun to make and came together quickly.
I was able to get the four runners done and quilted in no time.
I'm very pleased with how these turned out.
This block may have to be used to make a Veteran's quilt
in the not too distant future.
There is something about red, white and blue quilts
that just touches my heart.
Happy Birthday, America!!

So pretty, love that block and that is the perfect border fabric. Happy 4th!
Oh, wow, these turned out great!!! Fantastic collection of patriotic prints, nice combos in each block. I really like how you bordered the runners, with the narrow white border to give the blocks some breathing room and the bold outer border. I bet your sibs will love this year's patriotic runners.
Your table runners look amazing and so well pieced and quilted! Love your fabric choices and can't believe how you made FOUR. Lucky siblings!
