Oh deary me!

Here's the finished runner.


It nearly lines up ...


... and the border 'could do better' 


... but I'm well chuffed with my first attempt. I even made a second runner out of all the leftover bits.


The cutter, board and ruler have arrived and I've just tested them before I put them away for Christmas so the third runner is in the process of being cut out - aren't rotary cutters great!

Greetings, new followers, so glad you can call in.

  3. I don't think it matters about little mistakes, it's the loving hands that created it which are important. Looks alright to me.
