Thanks for sharing. Your table runner is really pretty. I like you have had the pattern for several weeks and keep reading the instructions and thinking not sure if I can do it. I know I just need to take the plunge.

Your's is beautiful!!! I made one but didn't have a pattern--just the ruler. It took me almost all night to figure it out but it was fun. Mine's more "fiesta" looking since I used batiks that were turquoise, purple, pink and orange.

i'm nervous to start too. i've tried with scrap fabric and had a hard time keeping my left edge straight after cutting the right side and turn it to cut the left side. when you cut the wedges did you mark the lines to cut or just rotary cut them down the ruler?

I didn't mark anything. I just used the ruler and the rotary cutter. It would be very helpful if you could cut at a table that you could walk around. That way, you wouldn't have to move the fabric. My cutting table is against the wall. Next time, I will set up another table temporarily so I could walk around and not slide the fabric. Trust me, I'm the weakest link in this quilting/sewing stuff and it was easier than I thought. The cutting was the hardest, but once you do it (start it) it makes more sense.

I wanna make one with pinks and use it as a wall hanging!
