I had a stack of fabric (and some trim), that I bought, actually when I lived in another state! It was intended for my daughter. She wanted a table runner for her newly painted living/dinning room. No problem! So I bought some fabric. But . . . . you know how it goes, life happens! Well, I finished her table runner today! Yay!
It's reversible, one side for everyday, and one side for special occasions. And you know what? When I got the stack down from the shelf, a receipt fell to the floor. You know what date it had on it? 03-15-2002! How do you like that? I hope she likes it after all this time.
And, I don't know what I was thinking, back in 2002, but I bought a ton of fabric, nearly three yards of each of these purples! Anyone else need a table runner? It might be done by 2020! hee hee! :-)

I have so many of these projects...so I can understand how good it must feel! Congratulations - it looks super!
I have a lot of those started-then-stopped projects laying around! It will be a miracle if I ever finish them! Good for you -- now your daughter will have a surprise!
I'm right there with you! Good intentions, you know.
Love the runner. I especially like the print side. Hope your daughter loves it!
Hahah...I've got projects like that sitting around! Love how it turned out though, especially that you've got a fancy side and a daily side.
I love the "special occasion" side! The purples are so pretty. I know she'll love it still :)
It turned out beautifully! I'm sure that your daughter will still love it. You should make another one for your shop.
What a good feeling that must be to finish something from so long ago! I admit that I have boxes filled with UFOs and fabrics I collected with good intentions of using...but just haven't gotten around to doing so. Congrats to you for finishing a very pretty table runner!
