My First Finished Gift

I finally managed to finish my first Christmas gift for the year. I had thought I'd have several gifts completed by now, but things haven't worked out quite the way I wanted. However, I do have this crocheted table runner that I recently finished, so I thought I'd share some pictures with you.








The runner still needs to be blocked and ironed, but I won't do that until it's time to pull it out and wrap it. For now, it's a little ruffly looking, but that's fine as it will just be sitting in the dresser of the guest room for several more months :)







It's hard to see the design against the floral tablecloth, so here's a picture I took while this was still a work-in-progress last month.
