Runner, Table (2004.8.4)

Off-white with multicolor stitching table run. The entire runner is edged with lace and has mirrored images on each side. The center of the runner, on the edge, is decorated with a pink saucer shape, which has a crisscross pattern all over. On the inner point, there is a red flower. There is a red line coming off of the curved part of the saucer and moving towards the end of the runner. There is also a pink line parallel to it moving in the same direction. The red line stops about eight inches from the end, where it runs into a blue string which creates three half-oval shapes. Within the top of the ovals, there is another saucer shaper: the two ends have blue saucers and the middle has a red one. Also, the blue saucers have white flowers with a pink center. The red has a purple flower with a pink center. Directly above the blue stitching is an image of a bird (pink with a redhead) sitting on an island (purple and pink outlining). There is a tree at the top of the island which is outlined in white and has a few yellow lines to show the bark. The branches are in multiple colors: purple, blue, green, white, yellow, and cream. Sitting next to the tree is a flower which is outlined in green and each peddle is stitched with a different color: pink, red, yellow, purple, and white.

Coming off of the four sides there are larger triangles created by multiple smaller triangular shapes. The corners are rounded and created by intersecting curved lines.

Runner, Table (2004.8.1)

Rectangular table runner with lace edging, longer lace triangle at each side of the length. The lace trim is edged in pink as well as the string holding the lace to the actual runner. On the lace edging, on both ends of the runner, the lace is decorated with a large butterfly. Next to the pink stitches holding the lace to the runner, there are very small cut-out holes running along the long end of the runner, about an inch and a half from the length side it turns in, slightly scalloped inward. Running next to those small cut outs is a dark red stitching. About ten inches from each corner the red stitching turns upward into a wavy pattern then straightens back out. Sitting on the inside of the red line are blue and green sunburst/floral stitches. Mirrored on each side of the runner is an image of pink, peach, and blue flowers in a basket. The basket itself is lined in blue, and the base of the basket has panels of green perpendicular lines. The top portion is done in red, also with perpendicular lines. The handle of the basket is simply two parallel curved blue lines. There is a fair amount of yellow staining on one of the corners of the runner, spotted stains.
