This pattern, City Windows, comes from Moda Bake Shop, and uses just a charm pack and 1/2 yard of another fabric for sashing and binding - talk about a breeze to put together! I will definitely make this pattern again. If you look at the pattern, though, you'll see that mine is slightly different, and that was entirely by accident. I was apparently on a serious caffeine high when I added the sashing to the top, as I put it in the wrong place. I think it works, the way it is, but I would definitely like to try this pattern again and do it the right way. I've got several charm packs in my stash, so I'm sure I'll try it again.
I outline quilted this runner, and I really love the effect it gave on the back, which is just the remaining charm squares sewn together. I'm really digging outline quilting, I just wish it came to me as easily as the meandering stipple. It takes a lot more concentration and tends to lead to a boatload more frustration, at least on bigger things like quilts.
I love this! And in my current fav. fabric Clermont Farms! Thanks posting this! I will have to make one!
