I promised my daughter-in-law a bed runner for Christmas and here it is half way through January and it still isn't done. I do have it started though! I'm using an easy "slice and dice" pattern with random strip sizes and placement, so it shouldn't take too much longer to get it all together. Hopefully I will have it all done by the time the new bedroom is finished!

Estimated dimensions for this? I've seen several folks reference bed runners... guess I need to do some reading up on this!
It's going to be beautiful!
I like the slice and dice. Did you just slice and that was it or did you have some dimensions too?
Looks cool, love the colors!
Very pretty colors. Can't wait to see it finished :-)
I'm not familiar with the term "bedrunner". I'm interested to find out! It's looking good.
I think you will have plenty of time... :) You will have to come over and take a picture once it is all put together in the bedroom.

I'm not familiar with the term bed runner either, but this looks pretty. You picked some really rich fabrics.
mmmm love paisley's and anything blue.
Seriously, this is the first time I've ever heard of a bed runner. Where does it go?
Love the fabric choices!
Not too sure what a bed runner would be, but your fabric choices sure are lovely.
It looks awesome. Those colors are great together.
I love the colours. That is going to be so pretty when it is done! I am sure she will think the wait was well worth it!
Lovely progress Susan. I love how the greys make it look shaded.
Love that bed runner---the colors are perfect!
