After thinking about how we should not put a runner on any table, have decided to make the fourth square and do a wall hanging. Don't ask why we don't use runners on the coffee table, lol, I'll just show you.

Everyone's runners are looking so nice.

I love mine. I am faster, just a little different.

Here is mine. I was unable to ride along with you all. So, I put mine together on Sunday. It still needs to be quilted. That might be awhile down the road. The black it is on is my treadmill. Gotta use it for something, right? Love everyone's combinations. Another winner from Judy.

Yes, isn't is amazing how different colors and values between the colors make them look so different!?

Betty B Very very nice runners

Sustraley - don't remember your colors, but they are striking together. Very vibrant.

Here I am. I was on the last carriage to pull into the station.

Judy I just want to say thank you so much....this is my first mystery train ride and it will definitely not be my last. I had so much fun and learnt so much along the way. I really liked the way that the mystery could be done in 3 sizes.

I learnt that I have to be far more adventurous when choosing colours and fabrics. As you know I chopped and changed my mind many many times before settling on my final choice and even then someone - who shall remain nameless but they know who they are .... thank you very much - did give me some very good advice about one of my colour choices. Some of the combinations that others used would not have been my choice but when I see them all made up WOW they all look gorgeous.

I am going to wait patiently at the station with my bag in hand so that I am on board when the train departs early next year. Something to look forward to. In fact I think that I may just have to go back and find some of the previous mystery rides to keep me going. Anyway here is my tablerunner and I am absolutely thrilled with it. I still need to quilt and bind it which I hope to get to later in the week.

So enjoying watching everyone's runners emerge. So many beautiful color combinations. This design is so versatile, haven't seen one that the fabric choices didn't work beautifully. I got started and kind of couldn't stop. These are three runners that I made for my daughters and daughter-in-law. Now to start putting together the full size quilt. Really looking forward to seeing that secondary design emerge. As usual Judy, this is a great design. So much movement!
