Did you have enough of the white binding or are you having to use your own? I had to piece to have enough borders for them and I only have a small piece of binding. I'll look for a solid turquoise or tonal aqua tomorrow. If he doesn't have any, I'll just use some of the backing. I'm making a small runner from the spider web and another smaller one from the mini stars. I thought their's was more placemat size. This is a little larger, maybe I shouldn't have put the frame around it, but I did.

I should have enough for binding. Have 3 strips and that was enough to do the first one. Second one is slightly longer, and slightly narrower than the first.

Okay, I'm going to try to add some pictures. They don't show up as well as Gmaann's, but here goes. I tried a close up to try to show my echo quilting, but I don't know if it will show.

Okay, here it is. I don't know why it didn't go the first three times.

It's beautiful, Karon!! Love that color choice, too! And I like the echo quilting!

Yes, the tablerunner is in the book. The others will be from the left overs.

My top is done. I did mine a little differently. I'm not real thrilled with it so I'm going to be taking it apart after I order some more TB fabric. I'll try to post a pic in the next couple of days.

Keep stitchn,
