Items you will need to complete this project:

Measure the width you want your runner to be.  Measure for an extra   inch on each side for your seam.	Cut a slit at the edge of the fabric at your desired width.	Fold the fabric over at the slit and make a straight fold.	Cut along the fold.
Fold over a 1 inch seam and iron flat.	Sew down the middle of the seam.

1.  Measure out the width and length you want your runner to be and mark the fabric at those spots before you cut.

2.  Make a cut at the edge of the fabric at your measured mark.

3.  Fold the fabric over at the cut making a straight folded edge to guide you as you cut.

4.  Cut down along the folded edge for a straight cut.

5.  Fold over an inch at the edge of each side of the runner and iron flat.  This will make it easier to sew the seam.

6.  Use a sewing machine to sew down the middle of the folded edge.  Do this on all four sides.
