i'm in love.
i am no seamstress, i can barely sew a straight line. (in fact i don't)
i got my burlap at wal-mart for 2 or 3 dollars a yard and barely used any for this project. i hemmed the piece of burlap then folded it over (my burlap was thin) before sewing it shut.
i used red thread to make it contrast. don't do this if your lines won't be straight. i learned this the hard way.
[confession: just ran to my husband and showed him my spool and had to ask him what "thread" was called....where is my brain?]
but i had a way to conceal these atrocious lines...
muslin ruffles!
super easy project, it took me way too long because i kept taking breaks to watch football.
our runner is 55 inches long (including ruffles) by 23 inches.
got any ideas for the rest of my burlap?
