Snowshoe Hare Table Runner

"The Snowshoe Hare winter quilt pattern makes a lovely homemade gift or quilty addition to your home décor!! The inspiration for this adorable, woodsy table runner quilt comes from spotting a snowshoe hare last winter! This is an easy quilt pattern to follow for even a novice quilter! The directions for this quilt are for rotary cutting and machine piecing. Accurate cutting and sewing enhances your final product. Pin your pieces together before sewing them to ensure proper seam alignment. Use a carefully followed 1/4” seam allowance to help you get uniform seams and matching corners. Follow the pressing directions described in the pattern. I used two different dark gray fabrics (one print and one solid) for the background of the trees. For the tree branches I used three different cream print fabrics that had little gray/black patterns on them. The rabbit was made with a white tone on tone small print fabric. I framed the quilt with a black striped binding and made the backing out of a black/gray print. I really like the monochromatic look of this quilt and now I want to design a larger quilt in this contrasting palette!! It’s such a stunning color combination! "
