I have been working on some Thanksgiving runners this week. I took a jelly roll of fall colors and made as many "wonky" log cabins as I could. I split the blocks into four groups and have finished the first two. M

My sister always does Thanksgiving (I do Christmas) so I thought it would be nice to have a couple of runners. I gave them to her the other day and she sent me pictures of them in her home. She decided to put them out now as her house is up for sale and they were having an Open House today.

For one I used Warm and Natural and the other bamboo. that was just what I had on hand. Warm and Natural is my usual choice.

Really nice. How did you get the circles so uniform?

I cut out the largest circle on freezer paper (using a plate for the template). I machine quilted around the the freezer paper, removed it and them just used my walking foot as the spacer for the rest of the circles going inward.
