Receding

I had the pleasure of designing a tablerunner with Island Batik fabrics. The fabric is Mystery and is shipping to stores now. The pattern is Receding. It is 42″ x 17″.

I made several samples with fabric from my stash before making the “real” one with the Mystery fabric. Some looked good, some not-so-good. This is three versions side-by-side, waiting for quilting and binding:

This is another version with pointed ends:

I used Deb Tucker’s Studio 180 Four Patch Square Up ruler — so easy to get perfect 4-patches! I love all my Studio 180 rulers!!!

It’s been a busy week or two. I have more proposals to submit to Island Batik, and others. I have several more new patterns to work on.

And I better get to it!
