I guess you could say i'm pooped!! I made a burlap ruffled table runner, and of course i used my stencil. I have to be honest i did do some cheating!!I went to the thrift shop and found a pair of curtains. They were a quarter. I know i'm a big time spender.They had the perfect ruffle i was looking for.I'll show you what i did with them.So i don't forget if anyone is interested in the stencil here is the web site. http://stencilstudio.vpweb.com/Monogram-Illustrations.html
I stenciled each end of the runner.
I cut the ruffle, and used my sewing machine to sew it on! Sew easy.
I bought the cutting boards at the christmas tree shop. I'm using them instead of chargers!I'm using my friendly village dinner plates.Now for a nice simple dinner for just the two of us.

Thanks for sharing it all, because I love everything! How inventive to use the cutting boards as chargers! I've been eyeing "Friendly Village"...I may have to start purchasing a few sets here and there. You've inspired me. As always, beautiful!!
Love the runner and the ruffle is just perfect. What great idea. I also love the cutting boards, that is such a creative idea. Hugs, Marty
Love it.. been looking for some burlap in that width to try the same.. just love the texture..your blog is great. Hope you can stop by mine, I am a newbie and would love if you could give a look.
Hi Kathy - you are brilliant using the premade ruffle for your runner - so many ladies don't sew much this is a great solution. Your runner is so cute, I adore the use of your stencil. I must get one of those! Blessings, Kim
Love the charger idea!! And the recycled ruffles...so clever!
You are so talented, Kathy! I love the way the runner came out and I'm going to steal that pre-made ruffle idea of yours! So much easier!
