Default Rail Fence Variation

Last year when on a quilting retreat I started a project using a variation of the rail fence design. It was very quick, simple and went together very nicely but it sat as a UFO for the last 12 months so time to get it out and finish it off. I turned it into a table runner.

Thank you for looking.

Oh, I really like your rail fence variation. Usually I'm not a huge ( rail fence) fan, but now I need to revisit this. You have shown me they can be really striking. It's always great to knock out another UFO too. Love it.

Oh I just love it, I too am not a fan of the rail fence design but I really like this one. Do you mind me asking how big your squares are?
