The Newlands Valley lies between the villages of Braithwaite and Buttermere. The narrow pass is one of my favourite road trips especially in the between season, summer to autumn when the hills are turning from the purple bilberries to the orange of the autumn bracken. I remember many happy walks up the hillsides picking bilberries as a family, (and then bilberry charlotte for pudding).
The Newlands table runner pictured has the lovely orange highlights of the autumn bracken but looks just as beautiful in other colour schemes
The pattern has now been updated in colour for 2026 and I hope you enjoy making it as much as I did. It is available from my Etsy shop as an instant PDF download for you to print at home Newlands Table Runner PDF
Happy quilting – Bev
