Please excuse me for not writing an interesting post today. You see, I was busy all night making one of these.
A 20’ long teal taffeta table runner (how’s that for alliteration?). One down, twenty more to go. They are kind of a pain to make, but look at how shiny they are! Please excuse the random threads, the fabric frays easily so I need to clean up the edges.
Here’s a rough mock-up of what they’ll look like on our tables, except the table will be twice as long and all of the chairs will be white.
The flowers will also be different. These were just leftovers I had around the house.
What do you think? Are you planning to make your own table runners?
i found them super cheap online, so i’m buying them myself… actually i decided to do organza overlay instead because that’s actually what was super cheap (putting it over white table cloths that are already provided)
@Soon2BeeMrsLewis: where did you find them? I’ve been thinking about table runners or overlays.
Me likey 
Good job Mascara!! Its going to look nice. We’re doing black tablecloths with different shades of blue either table runners or overlays (depending on what shape table we get).
I started sewing mine last week. I thought my 6 foot table runner was pain!
We are! I have two CUT (they’ve been cut for about 6 months now )
They look AWESOME!!! They will really dress up your tables. I love them!
Your ambitious! We are using chair sashes as table runners at our reception. Only $1 a piece, so I couldn’t pass it up!
I love it…it’s blue & shiny!!!! Beautiful! We just talked earlier today about having long tables instead of rounds for our wedding…but I can’t sew to save my life. My mum is excellent with a Singer though so thanks for the inspiration!!
wow - 20 feet long?? and 21 of them?!?!? that’s dedication!
When you get the chance, would you mind providing a cost break-down of this project?
@Miss Rye Bread: I will do a cost breakdown once I’m finished, but it might be awhile
I love the color. I don’t think I’d have enough patience to make 5 of those let alone 21!
I’m working on making our table runners as well!! Good thing my bridesmaids are so crafty
You’re so talented Miss Mascara! Your projects always blow me away! They look great!
Love the color and fabric! Where did you buy your fabric?
That looks amazing with the white plating!! Great eye for color!
I love the blue and how it pops against the white!!! I will be having chocolate overlays on round tables and the underlay is ivory
I love the color and how wonderful the fabric looks, Shay is right, it really “POPS”. If you dont mind me asking Miss M, can you provide a cost breakdown once you’re finished?
Love that shade of blue, it’s so beautiful and rich. I don’t have sewing skills, but seeing that sure makes me wish I did!
