Meet Jolie!
Jolie would make a superb table runner to display at home, especially if you are planning on hosting a meal for friends and loved ones. A centerpiece like this will make a cheery table!
Jolie is a modern charm square friendly design with a light and dark accent which includes the binding. The design includes a bold accent that frames the quilt. The pattern is perfect for beginners who are looking to gain some experience under their needle. If you are looking to make a mini eye-catching quilt that has a little flair, then this is the pattern for you!
The Jolie quilt pattern includes 6 sizes so you can make the table runner, table toppers, and wall hangings in the size that will fit your space perfectly!
This pattern is charm square friendly. You can cut squares from layer cakes, fat quarters, or your scrap bins for a scrappy quilt uniquely yours.
The Perfect Size of Runners, Toppers, and Wall Hangings
The Jolie quilt pattern includes 6 sizes so you can make the table runner, table toppers, and wall hangings in the size that will fit your space perfectly! No more tiny table runners swallowed up on your large table - the Large runner is a whopping 23" x 62". Or maybe you have the opposite problem, and table runner patterns are too large for your small table. Jolie has you covered with a Small Runner measuring 17" x 34" and a Small Square measuring 23" x 23".
To make fabric selection easy and to ultimately reduce fabric waste, the Binding is included with the Dark Accent fabric.

You'll Love Mistletoe and Holly Fabric!
These two quilts are made using the Mistletoe and Holly fabric collection by Beverly McCullough for Riley Blake Designs. The red, white, and green fabrics are so festive with its bright and happy flowers, snowflakes, bells, candy canes, plaids, and more! I love the muted greens and grays mixed in with the bolder forest green and Christmas reds.
The dark accent, binding, and backing fabric is Dapple Dot in Barn Red from Riley Blake Designs, and the light accent is Confetti Cotton in Cloud.
A note about fabric placement
For this quilt pattern, I recommend laying out all of the pieces before sewing to make sure you like the way the prints play next to each other. In order to achieve good pop of the accent fabric against the other prints, fabric placement is important. The lighter prints are best along the outer edge of the quilt because they will touch the dark accent fabric. If the light accent contrasts well with all of the prints, even the light ones, then it doesn't matter so much which prints are placed next to the light accent.
For the square quilt featured, the reds and forest green prints in the quilt center are placed symmetrically rather than randomly. The red prints aren't placed next to the barn red accent at all; they are in a square design in the center of the quilt. The forest green prints are placed near the red accent - note these prints are in the four corners and the very middle of the quilt center, and in two triangles along the edge of the quilt. Then the lighter prints in the fabric collection fill in the remaining spaces.
For the runner quilt featured, the red prints were placed in the center of the quilt, so they don't touch the red accent fabric at all. Then remaining prints were filled in, with the lighter ones along the outer edge of the quilt where they touch the red accent.
