Very easy to make table runners that tie together with ribbon.

This is a fun project that requires only minimal sewing experience.  They are  joined together with ribbon bows for a different spin on the classic table runner.

Materials:  

• A piece of fabric long enough to to drape across table and hang down on both sides.
• ribbon

Step 1.

Lay out fabric on table and determine how far you want it to hang down on both sides.  Then determine how wide you want your combined runners to be and make your cuts based on that.  Always allow extra all the way around for hemming. 

Step 2.

Hem all edges using a narrow hem.

Step 3.

Lay runners side by side on table and then using a measuring tape mark the ribbon placement using straight pins as shown in picture.  This will allow you to place the ribbon evenly so that runners lay evenly when you tie the ribbons together. 

Step 4. 

Stitch the ribbons to the runners.
