Don't know exactly what I'll do with this yet, but it was a good distraction while I came to terms with the fact I couldn't continue with the original pattern because of my mistake. Not enough fabric left to start over.
I think I will figure out some way to supplement the sides of the long runner. Any ideas?

When you thought you had nothing but lemons you sure made some awesome lemonade. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: I haven't any mistakes that turned out a gorgeous table runner like yours. Consider yourself a true designer now.
