Table runner for Pappa

My Dad's new wife loves sunflowers - she LOVES them. I had some contemporary sunflower printed material so I made them a table runner for Christmas. My Mom was kind enough to take it to them so I could save on the postage. (Terrible I know, I am sooo cheap, but a buck is a buck and we are still in a recession!)
Here it is:

I just made up the pattern as I went along.

I hope they like these fabrics, I just love them.

For the quilting, I did a free style - free motion. Again, just making it up as I went along.

Close up of stitching on the back.

I had to both laugh and cry at my husbands comment - he told me that he preferred the back and would use it that way. Hmp!

All done and folded up - ready for gift wrap. I made my little button strap again with some left over fabric.

Cheers,
Carolyn
