Halloween Table Runner

Our quilting guild holds an in-town retreat once a year where members can bring projects to work on and socialize with other members.

I worked on a Halloween tablerunner at the retreat. 

I gathered fabrics pieces in my stash.

I started cutting pieces into five inch squares then cut some in half and stitched pieces together. 

I fussy cut a few squares from an unused panel just to make the runner fun. 

My plan was to cut the 5 inch squares in half, mix them up and sew them together. Some sewn squares would be turned horizontal and some would run vertical. I quickly learned this plan wouldn't work because the squares wouldn't be equal squares.

Luckily I hadn't cut all my squares so I had to cut more and make some pieces 2.75 inches and some 2.5. It took a little more time but I got it worked out.

I quilted with the serpentine stitch which was pretty quick and easy. 

For fun and interested, I added a couple other stitches to the runner.

One Halloween project is done and I have another to be started soon. Thanks for stopping by - Judy.
