Last week I showed you my new
Cozy Block
that I made using my
Cozy Christmas Fabric.
And this week...
I have the tutorial ready for you!
I made this table runner and it
fits perfectly on the
farm table in my kitchen.
The runner measures
30" x 58"
Do you want to make one too?
Okay then:)
Sharpen your rotary cutters
and let's get started!
CUTTING:
Sparkle Background - 1 1/2" yards:
(A) Cut 48 - 3" squares
for making 96 HSTriangles
(B) Cut 76 - 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" rectangles
(C) Cut 64 - 2 1/2" squares
Red Recipe - 1/4 yard:
(D) Cut 16 - 3" squares
for making 32 HSTriangles
(E) Cut 15 - 2 1/2" squares
From Assorted Cozy Christmas Prints:
(F) Cut 54 - 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" rectangles
(G) Cut 32 - 3" squares
for making 64 HSTriangles
Binding - 1/2 yard
Backing - 2 yards
Use my shortcut method
for making
half square triangles
that I show you
in week one of the
Cozy Christmas Sew Along.
Use the (A) squares
for the background of
all half square triangles.
Make 32 -
red and white half square triangles
from the (D) squares
Make 64 -
half square triangles
from the scrappy (G) squares
Use your red half square triangles
and sew them into 8 pinwheels.
They should measure 4 1/2" square
before you sew them
into the block center.
Pair up the scrappy half square triangles
and sew them into
32 segments like this.
Use the (C) squares
for the 2 squares
in these segments.
These segments should
also measure 4 1/2" square
before they are
sewn into the block.
Make the remaining segment
for the block by sewing a
(B) and (F) rectangle
together like this.
Make 32 of these and
save the rest of the
rectangles for the sashing:)
They should measure
4 1/2" square as well.
Lay a block out
on your design board
like this and sew together!
Make 8 Cozy Blocks:)
They should measure
12 1/2" square at this point.
Now sew the remaining (B) and (F) rectangles into the sashing strips like this.
You will need 22 total and they should measure 2 1/2" x 12 1/2" at this point.
Lay out your blocks,
sashing strips and
red cornerstone squares
to audition for placement...
and sew them together
to create your runner!
These are the Cozy Christmas prints that
I chose for my runner backing and binding.
YaY!!!
All quilted and bound:)
I love the way it looks on my table...
And it feels so good to
have it finished and ready
for when it's time to
decorate for Christmas!
I'd love to see your
Cozy Blocks
so share them on
and use the hashtag
#CozyBlock
I'll see you back here
bright and early on
Monday morning
for the block eleven tutorial
in our
Cozy Christmas Sew Along!
