Sewing Patterns For DIY Fabric Tablecloths And Table Runners
Hey y'all! Today, I want to share with you a fun and easy project that you can do to spruce up your dining table - making your very own DIY table runner!
Table runners are a great way to add some personality and style to your dining room. With this DIY project, you can choose the fabric that matches your decor perfectly and make a runner that is truly unique.
How To Make Your DIY Table Runner
First off, you will want to gather all of the supplies you will need. You will need the fabric of your choice, measuring tape, scissors, and a sewing machine.
Next, measure the length of your dining table to determine the length of fabric you will need. You will want to add a few inches on each end to give it a little bit of a flow over the table.
Once you have your fabric cut to the correct length, you can move onto the width. A typical table runner is about 18 inches, but you can make it as wide or as narrow as you like depending on your personal preference.
After you have cut your fabric, fold the edges over to create a hem. This will give your table runner a nice, finished look. You can use pins to hold the hem in place while you sew it.
Now it’s time to get sewing! Sew along the top and bottom of the hem, making sure to remove the pins as you go. You can use a straight stitch or a decorative stitch, depending on how you want your table runner to look.
Finally, give your DIY table runner a good pressing with an iron. This will help to set the stitches and ensure that your runner lays flat on your table.
Tips & Tricks
Before you get started on your DIY table runner, here are a few tips to keep in mind:
- Choose a fabric that matches your decor and personality.
- Measure your table first to ensure that you get the right amount of fabric.
- Don’t forget to account for the hem when cutting your fabric.
- Make sure to use pins to hold your hem in place before sewing.
- Press your finished table runner with an iron to give it a polished look.
With those tips in mind, you are now ready to create your very own DIY table runner! Have fun with it and don’t be afraid to get creative.
