A friend made this table runner pattern and said that it was super easy to make. So I decided to use my red, white and blue fabric from my stash for the front side of the table runner. Since I also make store samples of patterns for the shop that I work at, I put strips of new Halloween fabric on the back. 
I know that it is hard to think about Halloween in June but we have new Christmas fabric in the shop too. This pattern was easy to make reversible. Have fun sewing and quilting. Donna

Love it!
Absolutely beautiful. I am trying to make this runner and I have come up about 1 1/4″s short at the top to align the B template. Did you have any problems with this? I checked my measurements of strips 2 1/2 and 1 1/4 and my seam allowances and they are correct. Your runner is BEAUTIFUL!
You could add another narrow border so that you can align with the B template. I haven’t made this table runner in a few years so I don’t remember having a problem. Good luck and hope you like your new table runner.
How do I get this pattern
The Greased Lightning table runner pattern is by Tiger Lily Press. Just google “Greased Lightning table runner” and you will find quilt shops that sell the pattern. It is a easy and fun pattern to make.
Hello, I’m confused on how to connect and cut the borders. First of all, my outer blocks are 17″ long on the border edge that the border is 16″. Should I trim down my blocks or increase my border length? Secondly, how do I position the border for Block B. Looking at the pattern (page 4) it looks like the border is quite a bit shorter than the block’s edge. Hope you can help!
I just found a video tutorial with tips to make this pattern on Youtube.com (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Xd882w51UE). Hope this video will help you with your questions. Good luck. It is a very pretty table runner.
Thank you. I also found this video but as for the border it only addresses how to add the border to block A, which is different from Block B. Perhaps I’ll reach out to the creator. The table runner is beautiful and I’m using Christmas themed jelly rolls to make it.
