Vintage Doily Table Runner
By: Julie Nyanyo from Sum of their Stories
Vintage Doily Table Runner
"Have you got a drawful of old doilies, tray cloths, placemats and other table linen that are stained or damaged but that you are sentimentally attached to or that you think are too pretty to waste? Patchwork all your doilies and cloths to create a brand new beautiful table runner. You can cover or cut away and holey or stained areas, over lap to cover marks etc so even the smallest pretty bit of vintage table linen is not wasted. "
