making a 60 degree table runner Help!
I am trying to make this table runner, I don't have a pattern I have just watched a video on you tube.
are the end triangle suppose to match, I have tried everything I can think of to match them and they still don't match. The lines match but not the flower parts.
Is this right or am I doing something wrong..Maybe I should just break down and buy the pattern ...Please excuse my messy ironing board ....Thanks

it is difficult. you must mark a flower or what ever part of the design on your template or ruler and cut all pieces with that in place to match. it looks very well so far, I wouldn't worry about it. the fabric is lovely.

I've made several of these, and unless you have lots of extra fabric, you won't be able to get them to match up perfectly. You will end up wasting a lot of fabric. Like Tartan mentioned, if you match up the lines, the rest of it flows nicely! I think it looks wonderful the way it is, and once it is quilted and puffy, you'll barely notice!
