This stack of fabrics has now become my first finished project for the Tangerine Tango challenge:
I went with the modern "Plus" design as I love how it looks with a mix of fabrics. We were allowed to use one "other" colour so I chose the light aqua/minty shade which was in both the Joel Dewberry Heirloom Tile Flourish in Amber and the Amy Butler Love aqua and orange spots .
The table runner is 14.5" wide x 29" inches long and I quilted just on the inside of each of the plusses so this is what it looks like on the back.
There are quite a few fabrics in this runner - Joel Dewberry, Amy Butler, organic solids, Sandi Henderson, Denyse Schmidt, honeycomb dots to name a few - but my favourite part is the square of Daiwabo elephants in the bottom right corner:)
I took lots of photos as I made this so I hope to have a tutorial coming up some time this week so check back soon.
