Here's how to fold it and cut the sides even.

That's too much work to go in the scrap pile! Recut it, put a border on it and put it smack dab in the middle of your table! Not many people can take pieces of material, cut them up, sew them back together again and actually have a beautiful piece of art when they are done! You have created a lovely piece of art! A year from now, you will look at it and smile and remember all the agonizing and be proud of how you stuck with it and finished it!

It is beautiful...I would never have noticed had you not mentioned your issue. As I have always told kids who run... even if they don't do well in a race..... The important thing is that you made the effort.. so many kids just quit.
You are not a quitter and your table runner is beautiful...pat yourself on your back.. stop beating yourself up. You did GOOD!

Just straighten it with another slight cut, it is beautiful. Please do not beat yourself up over this, I've been quilting for 43 years and I still do this occasionally. Just enjoy and try to laugh when you make a mistake. It happens to all of us, even after quilting for years and years.
You did a beautiful job on you runner.
