Add a pop of color to your table this spring with a DIY table runner! A quick and easy beginning sewing project. Use coordinating fabrics for a reversible runner!
I picked up a yard and a half and made a quick and easy DIY table runner to go across the table. Even after adding a scalloped edge it still was still a 15 minute project!

15 Minute DIY Table Runner
1 1/2 yards fabric
measuring tape
scissors
scrap paper
pins
sewing machine
iron
Cut two pieces of fabric 18″ wide and whatever length you want. I wanted mine to cover about 3/4 of my table length so I cut my fabric 50″ long.
Here is another quick and easy table runner idea from Diary of a Quilter.
