Home Sweet Home #30

Welcome to Home Sweet Home!  Today I have sewn some more table runners with a new love of mine French General fabric.

French General fabrics are the creation of Kaari Meng.  She owns a store in Southern  California filled with reproductions of vintage French Country textiles, notions, and more.

 Whenever I can get some French General fabric I will be using it and stocking my Etsy shop.

I am getting into Fall, here with my centerpiece.
Two of the above table runners can be purchased in my Etsy shop.
Thanks for joining me at Home Sweet Home!
Sherry
Now, I would like to feature some wonderful post from last week's Home Sweet Home.
 First, Olga of Olga's Home and Garden Blog celebrated Ukraine Independence Day with a Ukraine inspired table setting.  Click the link to view.

Next, from Norway Herman Grans showed off her remodeled dining table.  Click the link to view.

Faye at Wild Rose Vintage showed off an old wrought iron baby bed that had me from the thumbnail image with the way she photographed it.  Click the link to view.

And last, The Created Home made the cutest Alphabet Gallery Wall.  Click the link to view.

    That is gorgeous fabric, Sherry, and your table runner is absolutely wonderful~ Glad I was able to link up this week- our yard is coming along just wonderfully. The crew made so much progress this week and before I know it, will be done. Gee, I wonder if I will miss all the dust when they're gone? LOL

    Sherry I love your runner!! I need to sit down and figure out how to make one. I have all the fab but just hate the thought that I may ruin it!:( Thanx for coming to THT to party! I will be back to party with you!:) I just have been so busy that I have not been able to party as much which is sad.

    Okay, is that runner material red or pink? I went to your Etsy shop, and they are sold out. Email me when you get more material if it's red. I may just have to have one of those for my little blue house kitchen. I'm trying not to spend money, but that is GORGEOUS!

    I am in love with your beautiful burlap and floral table runners -- such a wonderful combination. I have seen these here and there on other blogs. I wonder if you could make me one for fall? I checked your Etsy shop last night, but I think you had sold them all for now. My e-mail is denisestablescapes@gmail.com, if you wouldn't mind e-mailing me with prices. I really do love these! Happy Seasonal Sunday to you :)
