Forgot I made this

Trolling the web one day in early November, I found this tutorial for a table runner using a charm pack - zig zag charm pack.  Looked interesting and something quick to make up.  I've had this one winter/Christmas charm pack with some yardage forever.  Like 5+ years.  I still have a jelly roll to use.  I may make a jelly roll race quilt with it.

Anyway, I've had this charm pack and thought it was about time I put it to good use.

ignore the wrinkles.  I had it rolled up and stashed in my sewing room.  
Cute, huh?  I liked that I had to cut nothing.  Just lay out the charms as stated in the tutorial and sew rows.  It's even a layer and turn inside out kind of runner.  The tutorial says to top-stitch and then do a little quilting.  I've done the top-stitching.  Haven't gotten to the quilting yet.  I probably won't until after the holidays.  I do plan on making another one.  I have several charm packs that I really don't have any use for but a zig zag runner?  I can dig it.

Here's a couple more shots


My Longaberger snowman looks at home on it.  
Enjoy your day!
