    I would like to see it with a border all around with one of the fabrics! Beautiful choice of fabrics!

    Oh my stars!! This is so so interesting and colorful and busy! This is a very talented piece of art!! I am envious of your accomplishment. It looks as though it took 10 years to make this lovely table runner. Amazing! This will make your table so beautiful and festive.

    Bargellos are very easy unless you can’t read the graph. To me that’s the hardest part substituting their colors for mine. I cut out and sewed in 2 days. Actually I’ve turned it into a whole tablecloth. Not sure which way I want to use it🤔 I have it on my table now trying it out. I like the look. It covers the worn spots I have on my table but I’m not sure how practical it is for everyday use...

    oh that would be hard and too much trouble, 😩 as the rows are done in lengths and all lengths have already been sewn together.

    Nice runner. If you're unhappy with the length, go ahead and add some coordinating fabric to each end. Love how you played with it on the bed, would make a neat bed runner or add some borders for a throw size quilt.
