It is gorgeous. I never would've picked up that floral but you have me loving it. Beautiful.
I love your table runner, it is very very nice....
Really pretty! You are right that it is very special that it benefits diabetes. Great cause!
This is so pretty! I love all of the browns together.
Love this really nice

As always I love this table runner you make!! I seriously need to make of these for myself. I can't WAIT to move at the end of Dec so I can get back to sewing in all my glory!!
it's gorgeous... but the cat is even more so! can we see more pictures of the cat? :)
