Medora Table Runner Pattern

The Medora Table Runner Pattern by Cut Loose Press features bold rectangular blocks arranged in varying sizes to create a striking design with strong visual movement and a distinctive Southwest-inspired flair.
Clean lines and clever fabric placement give this runner a modern look while remaining fast and enjoyable to sew.
The rectangular blocks are cut using the Creative Grids Straight Out of Line Tool (CGRKA3), making cutting accurate and efficient.
Because the blocks are trimmed after sewing, the pattern delivers precise results with minimal stress.
The project comes together quickly, making it an ideal choice for last-minute gifts, seasonal décor, or a fast weekend finish.
This runner looks stunning in earthy tones, desert-inspired palettes, or high-contrast modern fabrics.
It works equally well for everyday tables or as a bold accent piece for special occasions.
