Bungalow Quilting & Yarn - The Uptown in Any Town
You’ll come back to this one time and time again. Why? Because by simply changing the size of the squares or increasing the number of rows, you can have a different table runner each time. No hard math. Uh ah. Nope. No Way! Notta. Because I am not good at math, I foolishly assume that others are not as well. So, watch this video on how to make this simple
That’s right…you could just eat it right up. In my last blog post I took you through the stack and cut method for this block. Now I am going to show you the versatality of this little gem. So to recap, this is the basic unit of that block. Square it up, and you get this. Put it together and you get a myriad of results. Here are just a

I have been making these this summer like crazy because I have been doing orders in the shop like crazy.
