Best of Morris Patchwork for a Bed Runner

Intersecting Squares by Margie Mitchell of Sky High Fibers

Margie is selling a PDF pattern on Etsy using my

Best of Morris fabrics.

The geometric patchwork design contrasts

with the naturalistic lines in the William Morris prints

She uses a Layer Cake of 10" squares from Best of Morris,

plus an ivory monochrome print.

The pattern is for a bed runner, the perfect

room design for the hot months when you

don't want to sleep under a quilt.

Here's what Margie says:

"A striking bed runner historically inspired quilt with fabrics from the Best of Morris collection, giving a vintage look. Subdued colors and strip piecing construction give a subtle, yet effective diagonal geometric look. This quilt is easy to make and is written for sizes twin, queen, and king.

Sizes:
Twin, Queen, King

Finished Size:
Twin: 22 ½” x 64 ½”
Queen: 22 ½” X 92 ½”
King: 22 ½” x 106 ½”

Materials needed are the following:
1 Layer Cake or 3 1/2 yds. remnants
Ivory monochromatic print:
(intersecting squares blocks)
3/8- 5/8 yd.

3/8 - 1/2 yd. binding or use (5) leftover strips
batting
2 - 3 1/8 yds. backing"

The design would look good with a Layer Cake of The Morris Jewels too.

Of course, it depends on your bedroom decor.
