OK - here goes. This is Carol's directions, hopefully with pictures:
Four to Nine Patch
1. Start with four, 5 inch squares; two of each color.
2. Sew together with ¼ inch seams.
(see below)
3. Cut 1½ inch from both sides of each seam line.
(see below)
4. Rotate the 4 pieces that have two narrow strips of each color ½ turn.
Do not move the center 4-patch
(see below)
5. Sew the block back together.

10 Minute Table Runner
Materials needed:
2 contrasting fabrics; ½ yard of one and 1/3 yard of the other
1. Square up your fabric; lay the fabrics right sides together on top of each other matching one long edge and sew using a quarter inch seam.
2. Press open
3. Match and sew the other long edge together. You now have a long tube.
4. Press the tube so that there is about 2” of the contrasting fabric on each side of the narrow fabric.
5. Fold tube in half lengthwise and sew a ¼ “ seam on each end..
6. Open and turn the ends so the seam is inside the point that is formed when opening.
7. You can get two different looks depending on which side was out when you folded your tube.
8. Do some topstitching and maybe add a tassel to each end and you are done.
