Project Catchup

I finished my table runner last week. It was perfect timing! Thanksgiving was over and I could begin to display my Christmas decorations. I have a table in the dining area of my kitchen and thought it was the perfect place for my new table runner.

These blocks are easy to sew together but there are so many bias edges. I'm just pinning a lot but there are no seams to line up.
