It is beautiful and I have learnt something new. I am doing have been doing a table size and the instructions tell you to cut off when you go under it has driven me mad . And I have left it for a couple of years because it was so so difficult and a annoying. Will go and find it and continue. You may see it in pictures in a month.
Thank you for your inspiration.

Thanks guys!
DOTTYMO - you know what, I did not clip mine every time I went under. I ran it through continuous except for the beginning and end. I can see how that would be very frustrating! The loose ends is where it had a tendency to come undone and womple all over the place...I had to secure it in place so it looked continuous.
Two things that helped - fusible adhesive on the back, pull the strips taught, and definitely keep it continuous if you can until the end of the knot.
