Creating a super quick table runner in just 15 minutes is easier than you might think! First, gather your materials: two pieces of fabric—one for the top and one for the backing—each measuring approximately 30 cm by 150 cm. For a touch of flair, you can opt for a contrasting fabric or a complementary pattern.

Begin by placing the fabrics right sides together, ensuring that the edges align perfectly. Pin the fabric along the length, leaving a small gap of about 15 cm at one end to allow for turning it inside out later. Once pinned, use a sewing machine to stitch along the edges with a 1 cm seam allowance, reinforcing the corners for added durability.

After sewing, trim the corners to reduce bulk before carefully turning the runner right side out through the gap. Give it a good press with an iron to flatten any stubborn folds. Finally, tuck in the raw edges at the opening and sew a straight stitch along the edge, closing the gap neatly. Voilà! You now have a stunning table runner that can transform your dining space in no time at all.
