Wedding Table Runner Finished - Part 3


The table runner is for the centre of the main wedding reception table. I can't believe i finished it.


 Finished Table Runner . Measures 2 meters long and 28 cm wide.
My dining table is an eight seater.
Cotton Acrylic warp and weft. It is as soft as velvet to feel but has heaps of body and firmness.
It is a warp faced weave.

 The pattern on it is a baltic pick up pattern. I altered it to suit the design and theme of Sarah's wedding. She is getting married in Fiji on an island  far away from the mainland.

 The band on the end was a pattern that I made up as we wanted something very simple and we felt that there was enough patterning on it.
This band was inkle woven in the same yarn and was very thick to sew on , but a little perseverance paid off in the end.


In total it took about 8 weeks to finish, countless hours and sore arms, was it worth it, Yep it was most definitely.
