Fast & Fun Blog Hop featuring Snow Goose
Welcome to my stop on the Fast & Fun Blog Hop hosted by Villa Rosa Designs! I’m so excited to share my project, Snow Goose, and to help give some prizes away! If this is your first time visiting, welcome. I hope you’ll look around and make sure to check out my free tutorials. You can also sign up for my newsletter for all of the latest quilt-y news (and receive a free pattern).
Fast & Fun Blog Hop
The Fast & Fun Blog Hop includes a talented group of bloggers who were asked to make a project from a choice of 5 patterns from the Villa Rosa Designs (VRD) Rose Cards. These quick and easy patterns are the size of a post card and very affordably priced. You can purchase this same set of 5 Rose Cards for the bundle price of $8.95 at Villa Rosa Designs.
This blog hop is fast because all of the patterns are designed to be made fast. And it’s fun because there are lots of amazing prizes! Each blogger gets to choose 6 readers from their comments to be eligible for prizes. All the details for entering can be found at the end of this blog post. (UPDATE: January 30, 2023 – Giveaway is now closed)
My project – Snow Goose
I am a huge fan (and user) of table runners. When I saw the Snow Goose Rose Card, I new it was the project for me! I made this quilt in four days, including basting, quilting and binding it. It now sits on my table and I love it so much!
This pattern is designed to work with a jelly roll (2.5″ precut strips). Since I don’t own many jelly rolls, I found a 5″ charm pack of Blue Barn by Laundry Basket Quilts for Moda which contains the perfect colors for me. One charm pack along with a few squares from my scraps was all I needed for the top of this table runner. I had to adjust the cutting dimensions slightly, but it was VERY easy to do and resulted in a table runner that is 10″ x 45″ rather than 10″ x 50″.
The quilting was done with simple straight lines 1/4″ on each side of the long seams. I like the way this quilting style makes this runner look more like a home décor piece and less of a quilt.

A big shout out to Tricia at Villa Rosa Designs for organizing this blog hop and to all of the sponsors for your support. I’ve really enjoyed seeing everyone’s quilts and getting to know Villa Rosa Designs.
I hope you feel inspired to try out a pattern from the VRD Rose Card collection. There are 100’s to choose from and all of their patterns are well written and easy to make. Thanks for visiting and good luck in the giveaway!
Jo sent me! I love your table runner! Those blues and creams are my home colors. They’re just so classic together! Thanks for sharing.
Love your snow goose anything done in blues catches my eye
Your blues are perfect for Snow Goose! I love that the runner is adjustable!
Beautiful colors. I love all shades of blue.
Thank you for showing your Snow Goose table runner and how you adapted the pattern. I like to use table runners too.
Your version of Snow Goose is great. I like that you made it a big shorter. 50″ is a bit much for my table. Thanks for sharing on this blog hop.
Your table runner is just the perfect size. I love the colors. I love small projects. But I am drawn to large projects that take too long to finish. I am in the time of my life were I am just finishing up those forgotten projects but my path leads me to these wonderful smal projects that inspire me to create. Thank you for sharing your inspiration!
Jo Sent Me. Love your table runner, it is so soft and beautiful. Thanks for sharing!!
Love the colors in this runner! Looks like quick fun project!
Beautiful blues for your snow goose! The charm packs make it so easy to mix and match fabrics. Thanks for sharing and tge inspiration
Oh dear! And this is why I get so little quilting done. I spend too much time drooling over what everyone else has made. I gather lots of ideas and get super inspired, but I have trouble not clicking the next link. Although I make a lot of table runners, I don’t use them in my own home, but I do like what you call “the decorator look” that makes the item more appealing to me.
Your blog site is very pleasing to the eye. It’s fresh and pretty, clean lined. Seems like everyody that’s made the runner has done it in blue and white! Yours is very pretty. VRD patterns are like candy, you take one you like and all of a sudden you have way more than a handful. The app is great. When you move a pattern into your ‘what I own’ area, it puts it there in alphabetical order. So cool.
I love your table runner especially the way you quilted it. It is beautiful in its simplicity. I have some Villa Rosa cards but have yet to create anything from them. I must remedy that this year. Thanks for your participation in the Hop.
I have enjoyed visiting the blog hop this week. So many beautiful creations using the Villa Rose patterns. My favorite is Nantucket.
I have many jelly rolls, but glad for your suggestion of using charm packs.
I’m enjoying seeing all the variations in how you interpret villa Rosa patterns. The Blue fabric is gorgeous in the table runner. LBQ fabric colors are my favorite to use.
Love the Villa Rosa patterns. They are so easy to make. The only drawback is that they are so small, I need to come up with a way to store them so I can find them again.
Jo sent me. Thank you for the blog hop.
I thought I would use those old photo albums that you can put 4 pictures in a sleeve. 2 on each side. I haven’t looked for the sleeves yet so hope they still make them. Then put them in a 3 ring binder.
Your table runner is very pretty! I love Villa Rosa patterns.
Thank you for participating. Your runner is beautiful!
Your Snow Goose table runner os beautiful and sophisticated. Thanks for putting my name in the hat to win a prize from the blog hop.
I definitely like the way you quilted the table runner. I’m trying to do more of my own and love to see ideas!
Jo sent me. Another beautiful version of the goose pattern. Your fabrics were a great choice
I enjoyed your blog and signed up for your newsletter. Thanks for the free pattern!
Beautiful runner! I am a regular follower of your blog, love your ideas.
Lovely site. This is my first blog hop and I am totally enjoying getting to know new artist. Thank you for the opportunity to win by hosting your own drawing too.
Cheryl
I love the Villa Rosa card patterns. I’ve made a few and really like this table runner. I have a jelly roll of blues that I’ve been saving for something….and this just might be
I would make mine a little longer than 50″ to fit on my dining room table.
Thanks for all you do for all of us.
Love your runner and the colors you chose! I like the idea of being able to use the 5″ charms’ too!
Thank you for your Blog.
Your table runner is lovely. I like to have lots of table runners in different colors and for different seasons. The snow goose pattern would be perfect for that.
I’ve really enjoyed this hop; I’m meeting lots of new quilters! I agree with you about quilting the runner and how it changes the appearance. I’ll need to remember that trick.
BEAUTIFUL QUILT! LOVE THE BLUES AND THE SIMPLE QUILTING.
I want to make this using batiks.
I love the blues and creams. I actually have some of those prints and have used them in a project. I am always a fan of table runners, too. Thank you.
I love how your Snow Goose turned out! I love table runners, too!
I signed up for your mailing list.
Your Snow Goose is gorgeous, Julie !! Love it!!
Beautiful table runner. I would like to give this pattern a try, thanks for sharing the option of using the charm packs!
I really like the Laundry Basket charm colors. It’s good to know the patterns are adaptable with very little trouble.
Your tablet runner is gorgeous! Love your website as well. Thanks for the free pattern and tips videos.
Sounds like a great runner to make quickly! Yours turned out amazing using a charm pack. Did you use up the whole charm pack?
I love your Snow Goose runner. I have started using table runners more for side tables, shelves, etc. I even have a small “runner” on top of my toilet to dress up the somewhat boring bathroom.
Beautiful table runner. Clever idea using 5” squares & scrapes in place of 2-1/2” strips. Love the pattern! I am a big fan of the post card patterns.
Your table runner turned out beautifully, and your use of the pattern just shows that patterns are guides, not a list of must-do rules. Thanks for sharing it.
I really like the Snow Goose pattern in a table runner. Yours is beautiful. Thank you for sharing
I think Snow Geese will be the first pattern I try if I win the pattern set. I have some leftover Kansas troubles fat quarters that I think would look really good. Jo sent me

I’ve now had a chance to order her VRD cards & will be using a on a few of my panels…so happy about that. May even try yours as I adore sewing flying geese. Thx! Sadie [email protected]

I was sent by Jo

Love your tablerunner! I have lots of blues I collected for a quilt years back and this looks like a good project to use them up!
I love the blues in yours!
I am an avid, happy table runner maker and user too! They are always an appreciated gift and it’s a project that can be made in a few days without it likely getting set in the WIP pile. I also like your idea of simple quilting lines to make the runner look more like home decor rather than a quilt. Beautiful work, as always!
Your table runner turned out beautifully.
Your Snow Goose table runner is so attractive — I know that I need to make one
for myself.
Jo sent me! Absolutely love your blue runner, it is awesome!!!
Love your Snow Goose table runner, the fabric choice is wonderful!

I enjoyed reading your blog. Your comment about how to quilt can make a piece look like home decor had me thinking. Your snow goose turned out very nice. Table runners are so easy to decorate with, I love making them.
Your fabrics are so beautiful! Snow Goose was the perfect pattern choice to use.
Hi Julie! I’m a long time follower and I love to see what you’re working on. I love your table runner and I’d like to make one for my dining room table so hopefully I win the pattern! Thanks for your inspiration!

Hi Julie! Oh, I just love the fabrics you used for this table runner. The prints coupled with the simple quilting allow for a just gorgeous ending. Thanks for sharing your inspiration. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne
Blue is my favourite Color and I was thrilled that we can use a charm pack. I am Having a grand time following the blogs.
I love the Laundry Basket Quilt fabric you used. So pretty. Is that a gunge white on the back? I love it!
I’m loving reading all these quilting blogs! I haven’t mastered the flying geese yet they always come out wonky. Everyone says I need the flying geese ruler but in my struck budget I can’t afford another ruler..still a beginner with all this so I’m reading and watching all. Videos I can..keep up the beautiful quilting
I like how you used a charm pack and adapted the pattern!
Jo sent me. A quick project is so nice to complete in between big quilts.
What a fun little project. Love your colors they are perfect for the winter months.

Enjoyed the suggestion of the charm pack for making this table runner. Thinking I might give it a try and make it scrappy!
As always I love to see your finished projects. It looks like winter to me- thanks for sharing.
In the midst of working on several big projects, it is always fun and satisfying to fit in a small project and enjoy the results right away! Your runner looks really pretty on your table.
I always enjoy seeing your work…it’s so nicely done.
Loved the table runner and the way it was quilted.
Julie really like your choice of fabric and color for this runner. Your host did an awsome job and sponcers are great. No entry necessary.
I just stopped by to catch up with you. I have been following you and a few others you though. Your like neighbors. I have been gone for a looong time. Due to working, health and mental Issues, the Doctors
seem to think it’s due to meds fighting each other after a couple of surgerys . I go back Feb.3 for another adjustment of meds. Prayerfully THE FINAL ONE. They seem to think so. Then I go to have two mollers removed. But all dr.s are working together now. I’m totally blessed, it could have so much worse.
I’ll be blogging again starting this Sat. Hope to see you.
Lovely table runner! I like how easy it is to resize the pattern, and I like how you alternated white geese with blue.
This is a great blog hop and I’m loving the new sites I’m finding. Now I need to get busy and make up some of the Villa Rosa Patterns that I already own.
Love the blues. I’m making Arrowstone at a quilt retreat in February. Excited to get going on it. thanks.
I use a lot of table runners too. I love the fabrics you chose. So pretty.

Snow Goose was the pattern that caught my eye the first time I saw it!! Just love it!! I definitely need to make a few of them!! Love yours!!
Thanks for sharing your project for the blog hop! It’s lovely! It’s so helpful to hear when you can adapt a pattern to the fabric that you have on hand. I’m trying to work through my stash a little bit this year instead of buying for each new pattern, so it’s good to know that there is some flexibility in the size of fabric needed.
I love the Villa Rosa pattern cards, & love your Snow Goose table runner!
Jo sent me.

What a pretty tablerunner.
I frequently use Villa Rosa patterns since I like many of their designs and the patterns are easy to follow. Your Snow Goose runner is beautiful and the colors are my favorite so I will put it on my “Quilts I Want to Make in 2023” list. I appreciate the help and inspiration you give me each time I read you emails.
Your Snow Goose table runner looks great! I also enjoy reading your blog and have followed you for many years. Thanks for your inspiration =)

Oh my, I have that same charm pack. Thanks for the inspiration.
This has been such a fun hop! I love seeing all the variations of the patterns and have found new blogs to read!
I’ve been following your blog for years and enjoy your style. I’ve been looking at the snow goose pattern to use a ‘couch runner’. we have thousands of geese fly over our farm daily and it would be the perfect winter runner. I am kitting up Lincoln Stars for my March retreat.
I really like the Snow Goose pattern and the table runner you made. The idea of using charm pack makes it even better. Thank you.
I made Snow Goose for the blog hop, too, and really love your version of it! I like the way you adjusted the size to fit your fabric and also made some blocks in the opposite colors. This is so pretty!
Thanks for sharing your project with us. I love table toppers, they are fantastic gifts.
I have several Villa Rose patterns, altho9ugh I’m not sure I’ve actually made one yet. I like how the blog hop participants have adapted the patterns to their own needs. Thanks for showing your project.
I love the fabrics you chose for Snow Goose. Always nice to be able to adapt a pattern to use what you have.
Jo sent me!
Love the blues in your table runner.
Thanks for being part of the VRD blog hop and giving us tips on how to substitute if we don’t have what is required. I love your runner.
I have bought these great patterns before. Just wish they were more available locally. Love your blue table runner.
I admire your ingenuity using a charm pack instead of a jelly roll! And your quilt turned out beautifully. Thanks for sharing!!

Your table runner is lovely. Am enjoying seeing all the uses of the 5 designs
Love the Snow Goose pattern, I like making table runners because they are a quick and easy way to give as gifts.
I love your version of Snow Geese, and appreciate your use of straight line quilting on the runner. I’ll be doing a version soon. LOL
You just explained why I prefer straight line quilting for so many things! It really fits perfectly with your Snow Geese. Yes, I will be making it soon, and probably tweak the pattern a bit to fit my stash and decor……lol
Love your choice and the fact that you figured out how to do it with charm squares! Thinking I need to sign up for your newsletter! Thanks for the chance to win the prizes!
Love the blue Snow Goose runner! I too use table runners as well as wall quilts.
I soooooo appreciate the free shipping at Villa Rosa Designs. It is always my “go-to” for fabric and patterns.
Flying geese are one of my favorite quilt blocks. Your color choice is beautiful. Villa Rosa patterns are great when you need a gift in a hurry.
Hi Julie, beautiful table runner. I also love blue and Laundry Basket quilts. Thanks to VRD for the blog hop. Jo sent me.
Beautiful runner. I am not a table runner user, but my mother-in-law is and gets quite a few from my sister-in-law and I because she’s otherwise hard to shop for!
Oh goodness I missed this till today. I like the designs I see. Thank you I will go back and see the rest of the posts.
Your Snow Goose table runner is lovely and I now want to make one too! I love yours.

I just love your color choices, the table runner is beautiful. I really like VRD cards because you can add rows to make it bigger or remove rows to make it smaller
The table runner is gorgeous! Just my colours too!
I haven’t used any of the Villa Rosa patterns yet. I think they may be in my future.
Love your table runner! Blue and whites are my favorites and I have enough fabrics in my stash to make a lot of these. Thank you for sharing!

I like that you adapted the pattern to what you had
I love all the Villa Rosa patterns. Your Snow Goose table runner is great.
I really enjoy making Villa Rosa patterns. One page. it’s like collecting post cards!
I too am a fan of table runners and have one on my table at all times. Looking forward to following your blog and exploring your site.
I like that the patterns are so easy to modify. You are not the first to say that and your Snow Goose runner is darling.
One of the best things about this Hop for me has been meeting new bloggers as we made the projects for the Hop. I like your version of Snow Goose, and that one is on my list of must makes!
I rarely use table runners, but I think this pattern could be enlarged to make a cute baby quilt!
Julie, you always do such beautiful work. I like your table runner!
I really like your fabrics and the way you quilted your table runner. Jo sent me on the blog hop. 🙂
I appreciate that you made a conscious decision to do the straight line quilting rather than automatically cover every square inch with quilting.
I love your Snow Goose and especially the colors. I make a lot of Villa Rosa table runners and have not yet tried Snow Goose but after seeing yours it might just be my next one.
I very much enjoyed looking around your site.
You did a great job with the table runner.
I have really enjoyed this blog hop. I love seeing how each quilter puts their own spin on each design. Your snow goose runner is lovely.
I love your choice of blues for the table runner…I think I need the pattern…I have the rest…have a Beautiful Quilty day
Blue and white are classic quilt colors. Thanks for sharing.
This blog hop is very different.
That is so true about the quilting making it look more like a decor piece than a quilt – I never thought of that before! Thanks for sharing that idea. I love your rendition. Blues are my favorite and I have the most of those. I’m hoping to do that same design in a throw size. Jo sent me and it’s been a great hop!
Snow Goose is a great pattern. The quilting on yours really makes the geese stand out. Love it!
These are great patterns and your runner is so cute! thanks for your inspiration
Love your table runner.
Always love visiting Villa Rosa when in Auburn and her online response time is excellent. Win win.

I have been reading your blog for a few years and enjoy reading your post on life, family and fabric. Villa Rosa Designs offers so many cute patterns and I have used several for baby quilts and also some wedding quilts. I am a California Bay Area Native and have visited your local quilt shop several times, it is amazing the diversity of fabric choices at different quilt shops, can never leave one without coming home with new treasures.
Very nicely done. Blue is one of my favorite colors when quilting. It can be used most everywhere.
Julie, I love your blog and the cute ideas that you share. I’ve found many new designers through your recommendations. That Goose table runner is in my favorite colors.
Thanks for all you do for the quilting community.
I will definitely be back to check out some of your tutorials.

Jo sent me. I am a big fan of your Snow Goose. Love the blues.
Love the fabric and the pattern, Snow Goose. Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful table runner. Love the hint of using a charm pack instead of using a jelly roll. Love the blues you used.
Julie, good morning.
I love the table runner pattern you chose to make from the VRD pattern. The colors, size and quilting are lovely. This is exactly the size that I need for my table. Where can I purchase this particular pattern?
Love the colors you used in your table runner! Very pretty!
I love your Snow Goose runner! What a great use of a charm pack. And who doesn’t like blue?!
Julie – you never fail to interest me! Ordered Villa Rosa cards & can’t wait to get going on them!
Very nice — might need to start using table runners myself! 🙂
New here – came from Wendy’s. I think I will enjoy your blog very much going forward.
Thanks!
Love your table runner and the fabric you chose. Blue is my favorite color. I also like to make table runners, projects I know I can quilt and finish. Thank you for your tutorials and blog.

I have only made one of the Villa Rosa patterns, though I have made it several times. I have several others that I am anxious to try out. If only there were more time in the day!

I have many Villa Rosa patterns and find them quick and east to make. Your choice of blues for the Snow Goose table runner are perfect. Her fabric line is always fun to use. I liked how you quilted it and plan on making one and will quilt it that way. Thank you for the idea. I always get so many ideas from your postings. Thank you for all you do .
I love Villa Rosa post card sized patterns and your blog! My favorites are of your Grandchildren’s and family photos.
Lovely table runner! A pattern that makes it easier & faster to sew flying geese is a pattern for me!
That really is a great pattern. It’s timeless and works with just about anything. I love your fabric choices though. I also wanted to add you have one of the most nicely designed blogs/websites I have seen this week.
Glad to meet a new-to-me blog. Love your runner and look forward to checking out your tutorials.
Your blue geese are pretty! I want to make all these sweet patterns now.
I have numerous patterns of yours and have enjoyed working on each of the different ones.
The prices are the absolute best and so well done for any skill level.
Hi Julie. I have enjoyed your blog for years… thank you for your tips & inspiration! I still remember how happy I was for you when Tula highlighted your mask pattern on one of her videos! Sew cool!
Love your rendition of Snow Geese and it looks beautiful in your home! Isn’t it fun to stitch a quick project you can enjoy now? Glad you’re part of the Hop!!
I love your blog! I always find such fun inspiration! Your table runner is stunning. I love that you shred how you altered the pattern just a bit to make the charm squares work. Those comments help me think outside the box and tap into my creativity. Thanks!
Love, love, love this table runner.
What a beautiful table runner!
I really like the more muted colors of your table runner – I don’t have a long table but it sure looks like I could adjust for our dinette in the RV!
Thank you for all the tips and inspiration you send my way.

Snow goose has been a big hit. Great job.
Your Snow Goose is beautiful! I love that you made it your own by adapting the pattern to fit the fabric you had. Your site is full of goodies….the QOV pattern is one I may have to try.

This is so exciting! I have never done this before and am really enjoying learning and seeing new things. I’m always looking for more fun projects to do.
What a great combination of two of my favorites – the Crafty Quilter and Villa Rosa Designs! I have followed and made many quilts from both designers. Thanks, Julie! Your Snow Goose table runner is beautiful – a triple play in my book since LBQ is another favorite!
I love the blue you chose to use. It’s wonderful. Villa Rosa patterns are great.
I am also a big fan of table runners. I have been following you for several years and love your smaller projects. Wish I lived closer so I could take some of your in person classes.
I have enjoyed following you the past few years.in fact I am just finishing up ARROWSTONE. Can’t wait to get it quilted. I am so use to doing a block a month, this block a week was a little challenging, along with life’s bumps in the road and a long vacation I fell behind. I love the colors for you Snow Goose.
