I’ve been looking at lots of beautiful pictures of art quilts. Also, the monthly challenge for the Modern Quilt Guild of Franklin (NC) was to make something including prairie points.
For years I’ve had Susan K. Cleveland’s Prairie Pointer, intending to make something with prairie points “any day now”. (Raise your hand if you DON’T know how THAT goes!)
The stars finally aligned, and here is my first crack at a table runner combining all of the above.
As expected, Susan’s Prairie Pointer tool worked beautifully. I’m a big fan of her techniques, and teach some of them in my classes. The starting squares for the prairie points ranged from 1-1/2″ to 2-1/2″ in size, so they were all pretty small.

I like this runner pretty well, but I just KNOW I could do better! So here goes with another idea I’ve meant to try for some time: working in a series. I’ll keep you posted 🙂

Yes, please, I’d like to see how this idea evolves.
A most interesting table runner–love the way you worked the prairie points into it. I’ve used them to edge a quilt, but never thought to make them part of the design.
Hi Claire 😊. Thanks for visiting and for being part of my online quilt community.
