Pumpkin seeds

One of my quilting groups - Stash Pot Pie - did a fall table topper. The blocks look like pumpkin seed blocks, but is actually called cathedral windows. The technique was to fold the fabric and curl it over to make the oval shapes and top-stitch it in place instead of appliquéd.
The instructor had black cats and pumpkins in the adjacent blocks.  Since I already had a halloween runner I decided that I would stick with the fall idea. I used a paisley fabric in fall colors and cut paisleys from the coordinated fabric and machine appliquéd them to the blank squares.  This table topper works great through Thanksgiving.

Here is a close up of the stitched cathedral window block.
