You had a busy top so none of your mistakes will show. Very nice table runner.

From what I can see it looks great. I've never gotten the hang of free motion or paper piecing but I keep trying. I hear that the secret is practice, practice, practice.

Nothing wrong with that. My first attempt resulted in many hours of unpicking.

Weasier,
It looks great to me. You should be proud of yourself. I too am new to free motion. I have always been a die hard hand quilter and I am having a lot of fun free motioning. Compared to others, mine is not very good but I am proud of each one I do and you should be also. So pat yourself on the back.
