    When I finished my octagon OBW recently I had blocks left too pretty to trash! I wanted a present for a friend so I made this table runner. I love it, it will be hard to part with it but such is life! And she's a lovely lady so she deserves it. :-D

    What a great idea. I've been hanging on to some leftover stack and whack blocks that I simply did not know what to do with. Now I know! Also, your quilting is spectacular.
