This might be a stupid question, but i am not sure how to finish my runner. I have finished many quilts with no problem, but the angles on the table runner that I am trying to finish has different angles. When I get to the odd angle do I miter the corner the same as a 90 degree angle? I am in need of help to finish these projects that I have been working on since August!! :cry: :( :-) Thanks so much!!

Yes I do miter them, but you need to fold them so that they are at the right angle to lay flat. I try to fold it so the center fold is through the center of the angle.

I found a great youtube video about how to miter corners for different angles. My table runner came out perfect! Here's the link:
