    Mary, those table runners are both fantastic! Is that a more narrow binding than half inch, maybe? I'd like to try less than half inch on a table runner, and I had a devil of a time thinking up strip width. I finally went with my 'usual'!! ugh

    Great job finishing folks.

    Lara, they finished at 3/8. Measurements?!? We're supposed to measure? LOL. I started with a 2 1/2 strip but my seam was a smidge too big for what I wanted so I trimmed it a smidge before I turned it. Then I tried a decorative stitch on the front to stitch it down. I think it worked for this runner because the pattern is so busy, not sure I'd do the same again. But I am proud of the corners...my best effort yet.
