Table Runner: How to make a simple but chic

The table runner is a great way to add style and personality to your dining room or kitchen table. 

Whether you want to make a quick and simple table runner or something more intricate and detailed, there are many different techniques and methods that you can use.

• To get started on your own simple but chic table runner, you will need a piece of fabric that is at least twice the length of your desired finished runner, plus some extra for seam allowances. You will also need scissors, pins, the thread that matches your fabric color, a sewing machine (or hand sewing needles), measuring tape or ruler, and any additional embellishments that you may want to use.
• Next, fold each long side inward one inch and press with an iron to create seam allowances. Then, pin these edges in place, and sew them together using a sewing machine or a hand-sewing needle and thread.
• Continue sewing along the pinned edge until you reach the end of your fabric. At this point, you can add any additional embellishments or details to your table runner as desired. For example, you might choose to add lace trim along the bottom edge, or tassels on either end for a more bohemian look.
• Once you are finished, your simple but chic table runner will be ready to use and enjoy for years to come!
• If you are looking for a simple yet chic way to add some style to your dining table, consider making a table runner. With just a few basic sewing supplies and some fabric of your choice, you can easily create the perfect accent piece to complement your existing décor.
• To start, gather all of your materials and set up your work area. Choose a lightweight fabric that is easy to work with, such as cotton or quilting fabrics. Next, measure out the length and width that you would like your table runner to be and cut out two pieces of fabric in this size.
• Once you have your pieces ready, sew them together along three sides using a simple straight stitch or serger machine. You may want to topstitch the edges to add a professional finish.
• Finally, add any other embellishments that you like to complete your table runner. You could sew on decorative trim or buttons; use fabric paint to create a pattern, or experiment with other techniques until you find one that works best for you. With just a little effort and some basic skills, you can easily create an elegant table runner that will look great in any home.
