Another table runner finished!

 Here's the finished red-white-blue table runner that I pieced at retreat 2 weeks ago and quilted up here at home this past week.  Stitched on the binding this morning and it's ready to go into the Jolly Ruby shop and hopefully to someone's home for the summer.

I did some more fanciful free motion quilting in the colored sections of the blocks and a "headband" free motion filler in the white sections. The center of the "oh" blocks is a floral motif.

This is the back--a red-white-beige piece of fabric that I found in my stash.  I think it looks pretty good.

Again, I ask you readers, please give me your opinion:  Should the leftover fabrics go into a set of placemats or another similar table runner?  Which would you prefer on your Fourth of July table? For some reason, I'm unable to make a decision and I need your help.  Thanks so much.
