I left a 10cm gap after the first table napkin.
Then I threw 2 picks of plainweave with celosia orange 5/2 cotton from the right and hemstitched the start of the fabric. I began by trying 4 threads in a knot bundle. I compared this to the 2 thread/knot bundles of the red and also some that I did in orange. I decided that I preferred the 2 threads/knot bundle and so undid the 4 thread knots and hemstitched with 2 threads/knot bundles.
This was followed by another 2 picks of orange and then
