    I think the bias cut stripe is very striking and a great finish.

    My vote is for the stripe fabric. It seems to finish off your pretty table runner.

    It looks like the concensus is stripe. It adds an elegant finish to a beautiful runner. But what do you think she would like is the big question.

    I, too, like the strip. I think it's a great mix of colors. Other than that, my norm is to pull the least-used color in a quilt and use that for the binding to make that recessive color 'pop' a bit more.

    The stripes really set it off.

    I'm a fan of stripes. I like the cording effect but it adds another dimension to your beautiful piecing and seems almost too busy on this particular piece. I don't think I'd care for the beige but what does the blue look like? I think I'd stick with one of the fabrics already in the runner this time.
