Tumbler Table Runner from new video

[whimpysue]

I watched the new video today and am heading out to get material to make one )
My question is:
How much material would I need for borders, binding, etc?
Thank you!

Wendy, I see you didn't get any responses. Did you buy your fabric? If so, how much did you buy?

Thae one made with the little one I really like. I think I actually might try it. I have not made anything other than quilts at this point. But I think I can handle it especially with Jennys instructions

Thanks for the replies. I bought my fabric yesterday and of course I bought WAAAYYY to much for one little table runner lol. I figured out on my way to get the fabric to figure out binding/backing I will measure the finished table runner (duh moment right there I have my pieces cut, and am slowly building up the courage to start. If I like the results, I think I have enough fabric to make each sister one (4). Yep..that's how much fabric I purchased.

You are a good sister!

Ok, here it is. Not quite like I envisioned, but I will use it. (Not quite sure if my sisters would like it lol) I know it would probably look better if I added one more row, but it would be to big (I still need to add border). Be gentle, it's my first project.

I think you did a great job for your first time. Maybe on the next one you might try laying it out a little differently. You will be surprised how different it will look if you switch out the center row of tumblers so that the vertical rows aren't all the same fabric. You can leave the "background" fabric the same. For instance, looking at the photo, take the middle tumbler from the larger patterned fabric and exchange it with the center of the orange set. I'm not sure I am explaining this very well but play with t he tumblers before you sew the together and see what you think.
