What to do with these goodies?

This was in my Christmas stocking and I could not come up with a pattern that I could use them in ... until a fellow Canadian Marlene Biles at Sipiweske Quilt Designs shared this
wonderful recipe on Moda Bake Shop I choose the Bar Harbor pack for my first Garden Charm Table Runner. for the buttons I used....HEARTS


For the binding I used Nova Scotia Tartan.... (the first Provincial tartan in Canada and represents the important contribution of the Scots to the founding of Nova Scotia)
VoilĂ ! I mentioned this was the first Garden Charm Table runner but it will not be the last... I still have some goodies in my Moda Bake shop box and I can't let them get stale!!
Thank you Marlene!

(Oh my! I just realized I had not rounded my corners!!! )

  3. Love it! What a wonderful spot for our gorgeous tartan, Joan. I do have to ask...how large is your Christmas stocking that such a large box of fabric fits inside?! :))

  4. Joan, do you want to hear something funny? I made this same table runner and I used the very same mini charm pack. Mine is not quilted yet though. Yours turned out very cute.
