DIY Table Runner No Sew Tutorial

I cut 60 inches (1,5 m.) long by 24 inches (60 cm.) wide piece of fabric and folded in half lengthwise, yours should meet your table’s length. Make sure the right sides are together.

Iron it and draw a triangle on both ends to create the pointy end of the table runner.

TIP: Find the center of the end of the table runner, and mark it. Then on both sides mark 2 to 3 Inches down. Connect both sides with the center point and you are done.

Cut along the lines leaving a margin of 0,4 Inches (1 cm.).

Iron the borders of the fabric to the inside as if you were making a hem.

Once all your ends are ironed, fold the table runner again but with the wrong sides together.

I recommend always reading and following the Iron-on tape’s instructions. However, here’s how I did it.

Apply the iron-on adhesive on one folded hem on the back side of the fabric and iron it for 2-3 seconds.

Wait until it cools.

Then peel off the paper liner carefully. if the adhesive comes off, put it back and iron it for a couple more seconds.

Place the other side of the table runner on top, and align the edges well. Press and hold the iron for 8 seconds on each section until the entire piece was bonded.

And the main piece of the table runner is done!!!

This step is optional, you can totally leave it as is or you can add other types of decoration like ribbons, tassels, etc.

Cut many strips of the same fabric (you can make it with another fabric) and made 2 bunches.

Knott one by one to the safety pins until they look like pom-poms.

Finally, pin the safety pins to both ends of the table runner on the side that will not be visible.

Here you go!… Put it on your table, add a cute vase with flowers and enjoy.
