Very impressed with your solution. You done great on it & I know it will be treasured.

Thanks. Now to get it quilted.

Like your solution. Had to go back to 1st pic to be sure of what you did. Great Job!

I would add something at the ends, not the middle so you don't ruin the pattern. Your work is beautiful, sorry this happened.

OK, just saw your solution. It's PERFECT.

think your solution is great! I think it looks better than breaking up the pattern - looks like it just belongs there.

I love it! You final solution is perfect, especially since you say your MIL will probably put something in the center of the runner. Great job!
