Tumbling Block Chilis Table Runner
This bright and colorful traditional tumbling blocks runner takes on a contemporary look due to the fabric choices. It measures a narrow 11” wide x 37” long.
Traditionally, a tumbling blocks quilt consists of three fabrics varying in value from light to dark, This variance in value is what gives the blocks their three dimensional effect. Also, if you look at the quilt long enough, there is an Escher-like effect. The sides of the blocks, or medium (red and green) and dark (black) fabrics, shift when staring at the quilt. The chili pepper fabric (or light fabric) also appears to move up and down.
The runner is backed with the same wavy green fabric as the binding. It is filled with 100% cotton batting and machine quilted following the “stairsteps” of the red, green and black fabrics.
Easy care: machine wash cold, low tumble dry, cool iron if needed.
