Here you'll find a variety of quilted patchwork designs, most with traditional shamrock motifs (some with a creative modern twist), for your St. Patrick's Day celebrations.

And a smaller quilting project like a table runner, topper, or mini quilt can be a great first project for someone new to quilting. The project will likely feel less overwhelming to the new quilter, and she'll be able to quickly experience the satisfaction of a completed project. And if she happens to decide that quilting isn't for her, she hasn't invested a lot of time, energy, or money in the endeavor.

And a smaller patchwork quilting project like a table runner can be a great way to use up smaller fabric scraps - especially any green ones for St. Patrick's day! It can also be a great way to use any green quilting pre-cut bundles you may have such as fat quarters and jelly rolls. And one great thing about using quilting pre-cuts is that the prints are usually from the same color family, which means the color coordinating has been done for you.

And if you are going to be sewing your table runner from quilting pre-cuts, should you prewash them? Some quilters don't think it's necessary if you're using high quality fabrics (or if you will be selling your quilted items). Some prefer prewashing because it washes out any sizing the fabric may have been treated with. If you do choose to prewash your pre-cuts, you may want to place them in a mesh laundry bag to prevent tangling of the fabric pieces (especially for prewashing jelly rolls).
