This is a table runner kit from Villa Rosa, containing the fabrics needed to piece and bind a finished runner measuring 17 by 53 inches. That long, narrow format is built for a dining table, though it works equally well on a sideboard, console or dresser top. The kit includes all fabric for the quilt top and the binding, so the cutting decisions and fabric matching are already done — you piece, quilt and bind, and the project is finished. The design is a festive, seasonal one intended as a holiday accent.
Backing fabric is not included, so you'll need to supply your own along with batting, thread and any notions. At this size a backing requirement is modest, and it's a good use for a piece from your stash. The pattern is described as suitable for quilters of all skill levels, and a runner is a common first quilted project for that reason: it uses the same piece-quilt-bind sequence as a full quilt, at a size you can finish in a sitting or two rather than a season.
