I love Christmas. As the years go on though, I'm finding that I want to transition from traditional Christmas decor to things that are simply festive and bright.
I made this table runner from my shot cotton scraps. It's nice and skinny compared to a traditional-sized runner, measuring about 9" x 30". I prefer the smaller size because it doesn't crowd the placemats when the table is set. It gives a nice shot of color to our dark dining room table-- plus, it can stay out long after we put away the tree! Craft longevity is a good thing.

its fabulous.
It certainly is! Love this. I need to expand my shot cotton collection, that's for sure.
lovely, such pretty bright colours,
Wonderful! And, I love the flowers too.
It's gorgeous Krista! It looks fabulous with the flowers and candles! Nice arrangement!
Niiiiice!
I like the smaller runners too. Our current runner is more like a glorified placemat (a bit longer, but same width). I'm thinking of making a new one over the winter break.
Yours is good inspiration.
oooo, this is so very lovely. the colors are great! I love table runners, I keep planning them, now to hope that they'll get made! :)
Beautiful - I'm with you about the traditional Christmas decs - I'm getting very bored with all the red and green, etc.! Wonderful splash of celebration!
Oooh Krista that's beautiful and I think you can use it well into the new year. Love the bright colors!
So bright and lovely!
It's so pretty!
