2019 Table Runner Sewing Tutorials Round Up by Nancy Zieman Productions

Hexagon Hit & Miss Table Runner

At first glance, this table runner looks like it’s pieced with traditional hexagons. Not so with this speedy column quilt design. The hexagon shapes are created with two halves, eliminating the intersection of three seams, otherwise known as Y-seams. With this technique, faux hexagon halves are stitched in columns with relative speed and ease. Plus, the results are dramatic with Nancy’s Hit & Miss Table Runner Tutorial.

Make a nontraditional Dresden plate. No round shapes here—the wedge-shapes of the Dresden are stitched, well … topsy-turvy, to create a linear look. This finished table runner is approximately 18″ x 86″. You could shorten or lengthen depending upon your table size. See how easy it is to make the Topsy-Turvy Table Runner.

No-Hassle Triangles Table Runner

Many of you have commented on the ease of creating triangles with the No-Hassle Triangles Gauge and wanted additional projects. We’re confident you’ll add the No-Hassle Triangles Table Runner to your to-do list. Made in the same style as the projects featured in Nancy’s Quick Column Quilts, triangle blocks plus column strips make for a fast, easy, and no-hassle assembly of this 21″ x 56-1/2″ No-Hassle Triangles Table Runner.

Festive Fall Table Runner

You may recognize this next table runner tutorial from our 2018 NZP Fall Table Runner Challenge. Featured is the Box Quilt Block, which dates back to 1898. Each 12-1/2″ block is made with eight half-square triangles and a center square. Streamline the piecing process by using the No-Hassle Triangles Gauge.

Dresden Melody Table Runner

Think outside the traditional patchwork world and use a multisized Dresden template to add a modern twist to a tried ‘n true design. We call it the Dresden Melody with five half-Dresden plate designs that seem to flow melodically together. The finished Dresden Melody Table Runner measures 28″ x 82″.

Heartbeat Table Runner

No matter the size—table runner to king quilt—you can sew a quick column quilt in a heartbeat! Colorful accent strips in a variety of widths make up the heartbeat pattern, while the subdued one-color strips add a perfect background for the design. In Quick Column Quilts you’ll watch Nancy stitch a queen-sized quilt. In this blog posting, we’ve scaled down the design for this Heartbeat Table Runner size, 24″ x 57″.

Heartbeat Quilt Nancy ZiemanSilk and Ribbon Table Runner

Here’s a table runner that you can easily create in 2-hours—our kind of home décor project! Renaissance Ribbons, Silk Dupioni, and a little thread are all you’ll need. The ribbon is the unifying element in this design. The Silk and Ribbon Table Runner is a super-fast sewing project!

    Table runners are an easy way to try out a pattern or design idea. They don’t use a lot of fabric and are a great gift too.

  • Cheryl

    Sewing has been a passion for many years, but very new to quilting. Created my 1st quilted table runner and looking forward to entering it in the challenge. Winner or not it will be a wonderful experience.

  • CARLA

    I do not know where I have been all these years as I have never seen so many table runners. I just love it and matching placemats would really top it off with matching napkins. That would be something to feast your eyes on as the place mats could have the same material but a different pattern and the napkins could be made with 2 different colors of material and embroidered. WOW!!

  • Susan

    Table runners are a great way to add color and seasonal flair to a room. The best part is that they are generally fairly quick to make and yet, they add a lot of impact.
