LOVE, LOVE this cool template!!  Have you heard of the Lil’ Twister?  There is also a full size Twister…not sure what it’s called!  :)

 

So here’s what the template looked like.  I found it while wondering around a LQS not long ago.

 

 

All you need are 5” charm squares (the bigger version uses 10” squares).

 

I had an adorable charm pack from Riley Blake for Halloween.  Here I have them spread out and am starting to sew them together.

 

 

 

You just sew them all together and add a border.  That’s the first part.

 

 

So cute, right?  Well, it gets WAY Cuter!!!!  Check it out.

You use this cool little square template to start cutting apart the runner you just made!!  (Kinda scary!)

 

 

You reposition your new squares like so…you can see the pinwheels just starting to form!

 

 

And more…

 

 

It does end up quite a bit smaller than the original runner but it is really cute!

 

 

 

Here it is quilted, bound and sitting on my coffee table!!
