I think it will be beautiful. You created a new pattern.
I am trying to figure out how to make smaller runners, and the strip width is what is hard to calculate. I think I will just take play with it, and hopefully figure it our.

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one that found the instructions hard to understand, I had one heck of a time and thought it was me.

I had to skip the first measured cut, too.
