Did January just fly past in a blur? I sure think it did. Last week I mentioned I wanted to piece another diamond table runner and try to make some more log cabin blocks. Was I able to do that?
Here is the newest diamond table runner all pieced. One would think I would be tired of using Christmas fabric at this time of year. But I have sewn out of season for years so it doesn't bother me at all.
The log cabin blocks are moving along with a few red ones and a few blue ones. I really like this setting don't you?
A new project was started also, it's always fun to start something new. I had this gray/black strip set setting around for a while and it finally spoke up and said 'get on with it would you'!! So I listened this time.
This week I should be able to finish up the black and gray blocks and assemble them into rows. And move the log cabins onward too.
If you would like to see what other quilters did this week join me at the To Do Tuesday linky party at HomeSewnByUs blog.
Typically, January just drags along or at least it feels like it. Not this year...whew! If I didn't sew out of season then I'd never get anything done LOL. Yes, I do love the setting of your RWB log cabin blocks.
ReplyDeleteReally love that log cabin so far and yes, I love the setting. Log cabins always catch my attention, esp in smaller piecing. I did a few pretty close together so I got a little burned out on them but I'm feeling it might be time to start another. So, so traditional and always loved!
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy lately! I do like that setting for log cabins, and I can't wait to see the black & white project. All of your quilts are so lovely.
ReplyDeleteLove the star setting for the log cabin blocks!! I'll be interested in seeing what you do with the grey and black blocks. Happy stitching, Vicki!
ReplyDeleteYep, the star setting for the log cabin blocks is perfect!
ReplyDeletelove that log cabin!
ReplyDeleteI like that star setting, too! And the grey and black blocks - love! Are those made by sewing straight strips together and then cutting on an angle?
ReplyDeleteHi Vicki!! Love, love, LOVE, L.O.V.E. the log cabin blocks in that setting. Geez, I never in a billion years would have thought to lay them out like that. You almost make me want to make some log cabin blocks just for those stars! Hmm, now what are you going to put in the corners and is this going to be a runner or something bigger?! Love the black/white/gray project, too. Lots of eye candy in this post. Thanks for linking up today. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteLove the grey and white blocks. It will be fun to see what they become! I love the log cabin, too - and yes January flew by!
ReplyDeleteYour table runner is so fun! I just love that design. Looking forward to seeing your progress on the log cabin blocks (and I DO like the layout!) and the new gray/black blocks. Fun things are happening in your space!
ReplyDeleteThose are very pretty log cabin blocks! Also love your black and gray blocks. :)
ReplyDeleteOhhhh That log cabin.... so so pretty!! and the black and grey!! If you mix is up enough the Christmas just doesn't seem out of place!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great setting for the log cabin blocks.
ReplyDeleteFun Fun stuff!!
