Cut a rectangle for the table runner measuring 200 x 35cm. Repeat with your second fabric.
Top Tip: If your table is longer, you may need to cut two strips and sew them together.
To create the napkins, cut squares measuring 45 x 45cm with the remaining fabric.
You will need two different fabric squares per napkin.
Press all the pieces flat, then place two bits of fabric right sides together and pin.
Leave a 10cm gap on one side, you may want to use pins to mark this gap.
Sew all four sides on your machine, making sure to leave the marked gap.
Trim all four corners off.
Turn each item the right way around through the gap. You may want to use a knitting needle to poke out the corner.
Press each item flat.
Topstitch all sides, sewing the gap shut as you sew. 6mm from the edge will be a good measure, we used a 1/4” quilting foot to help with this.
Press the completed table runner and napkins to finish.
The table runner and napkins are then ready to be used!
