How to Style Your Table Using Patchwork Projects

Banner

Hello makers!

 

For those of you that have been following along with our Patchwork Stories, we have arrived at another week of inspirational handmade projects, and this week is centered around decor and different ways you can incorporate patchwork into your home. We’ve seen some different ways to spice up our wardrobe and accessories, as well as some comfy elements to snuggle with like pillows and of course quilts, but what about the one place that is all about togetherness and bringing families together: the dining table. 

 

Blog 1

 

Featuring coasters, placemats, and a table runner, this dining setup is the perfect inspiration for the coming spring and summer seasons. Paired with a variety of prints from multiple different fabric collections, our Pure Solids make a fabulous appearance coupled with matching shades and contrasting combinations. 

 

Collage_ Coasters

 

These super cute coasters consist of four squares with one snowballed corner, diagonal quilting, and simple binding to keep your surfaces free from water rings and let’s face it, make your drink glasses look pretty. You can find the instructions on how to make these coasters here: Reverie-Coasters_Instructions-1.pdf (liveartgalleryfabrics.com) 

 

For these coasters we used these fabrics:

  • ‘Berry Picking’ from “Lilliput” by Sharon Holland
  • ‘Sunbleached Leaves’ and ‘Flying Seeds’ from “Soften the Volume”
  • ‘Hillside Gust’ from “Velvet” by Amy Sinibaldi
  • ‘Cherished Gatherings Glint’ from “Open Heart” by Maureen Cracknell
  • Pure Solids in ‘Mauvelous,’ ‘Miami Sunset,’ ‘Ocean Fog,’ and ‘Fresh Sage’ 

 

Collage_ Placemats

 

While they don’t entirely have snowballed corners, these placemats combine strip piecing and diagonal seams to create a lovely contrast between the lighter and darker fabrics while letting the floral print shine through. You can find the instructions on how to make these placemats here: Musing-Placemats_Instructions-1.pdf (liveartgalleryfabrics.com) 

 

For these placemats we used these fabrics:

  • ‘Jasmine Soulful’ from “Velvet” by Amy Sinibaldi
  • ‘Flying Seeds’ from “Soften the Volume”
  • Pure Solids in ‘Ocean Fog,’ Fresh Sage,’ and ‘Patina Green’

 

Collage_ Tablerunner

 

This table runner consists of mainly flying geese using the no-waste flying geese method. By pairing like colors together, each flying goose has an effortless combination while also contrasting beautifully with the flying geese around it. You can find the instructions on how to make this table runner here: woolgathering-table-runner_Instructions-1.pdf (liveartgalleryfabrics.com) 

 

For this table runner we used these fabrics:

  • ‘Berry Picking’ and ‘Ode to Toady’ from “Lilliput” by Sharon Holland
  • ‘Flying Seeds,’ ‘Natural Bouquet,’ and ‘Sashiko Mending’ from “Soften the Volume
  • ‘Cherished Gatherings Glint’ from “Open Heart” by Maureen Cracknell
  • ‘Hillside Gust’ from “Velvet” by Amy Sinibaldi
  • ‘Rambling Rose Briar’ from “Spirited” by Sharon Holland
  • ‘Teeny Weeny Cinnamon’ from “Little Clementine” by AGF Studio
  • Pure Solids in ‘Mauvelous,’ ‘Blossomed,’ ‘Miami Sunset,’ ‘Ocean Fog,’ Patina Green,’ and ‘Blushing’

 

I recently just moved into my own little studio apartment (yay!) and I needed some ideas for home decor and these techniques and color palettes are exactly what I am going for. They are bright and colorful and perfect for adding some homey-ness to my humble abode. 

 

I would love to see your take on these projects, so make sure to tag us in your photos on social media using the hashtag #artgalleryfabrics and #AGFPatchworkStories

 

Happy sewing everyone!
