I agree - stitch in the ditch.

That is very cute.

I agree - it's what I'd do, too!

Definitely, stitch in the ditch. Very pretty.

This is really beautiful. Can I ask the name of the pattern?

Stitch in the ditch for sure!! As far as the border something simple but not straight lines!!! I like the idea of the darker red print for binding - also may consider the stripe! that way you dont take away from your middle!! Please post picture when done Great Job and thanks for the pattern name!! :thumbup: cheryl

Perfect. Great job.

Bonnie, your table runner is very cute. If you want to do a detailed quilting, try hearts or flowers in the hexagons to replicate the hearts and flowers in the border. Thanks for sharing. Eiltcoq.

HELP _ in-progress stitch in the ditch quilting
Here's the front which looks almost ok, but the back shows alot of pulling and waviness :-(
So far I learned I should have gone the same same direction but I alternated each stitching line....oops
I am using a sitd foot because I thought they were for quilting (versus a walking foot)
I will be ripping out tonight and starting again so hurry and send any helpful tips for sitd please!!!!

I've made a couple of these. I SID by stitching diagonally one direction and then turned and went the other. Ended up with each "cookie" stitched around that way. Looked good when finished.
