And now for my finished trimmed and bound runner, and also my sister's runner. She is not on the QB nor is she an experienced quilter but she was over last weekend when I was sewing on my binding and she wanted to make runner. She took home the directions, and then came back yesterday to show me. She said it was ok for me to share with you. Hers is also a Christmas runner, but used lighter and an entirely different color scheme. I love them both!
