That's right !! (what Ube said) Just make something nice that you would like and use yourself. We are not in a contest. (Thank God) Enjoy what you get and what you send.

Thank you both Ube & Lawsonmugs for the reassurance and I'll re-consider; but I do still have plenty of time to make a second one just in case :-)

I've had pep talks from this great bunch too! It has given me the courage to try new things, practice the stuff I dread doing etc. etc.! lol No judgement! I try to choose colours and patterns that I would like on my own table, and then my fingers are crossed when I mail it out! All different skill levels participate but it's great to receive a runner in the mail that is a complete surprise and done as a special effort for this swap! Get sewing & enjoy! I'm excited to see what you are working on!

wonderful fruit salad m-fay. So what do you think of the pineapple block? Time consuming but well worth it, I'd say!
