Log cabin holly runner

I might be a little ahead of the holiday season but I just felt like making this while we were out camping earlier this month.  Most of it was precut and kitted up to take along. Actually two of these were pieced. Quilting happened earlier this week. 

The pattern is from Connie at Freemotion by the river blog. I tweaked it a bit by doing my logs in only red and white. 

My stash yielded me the plaid for the binding:) It measures approximately 24" square.

Linking with TGIFF, Finished or not Friday, and Beauties Pageant.

Some goals met some not

 And does it bother me that some goals were not met?  No it doesn't right now.  I wanted to start something fun just because I could!!  So I pulled this jelly roll of Riley Blake off the shelf.  Aren't these just such fun colors and the prints, well there are several that quickly became my favorite.

Never wear a black shirt or pants when working with precuts that have been pinked!!  I quickly became polka doted with white specks:(  Oh well I was still having fun and made quick work of a bunch of strip sets.  I am using a pattern by Kitchen Table Quilting called The Iris Quilt. 

Before starting the new project above I made 6 more brown/neutral log cabins. 

And the last Christmas diamonds table runner for a while. I had kitted up 3 of them and they are all pieced now. 

Do you tend to get upset with yourself if you don't meet your goals.  I don't think we should as long as we are doing something, after all that would still be progress!  I am not sure what I will work on this week, perhaps I will get back to working on the black/gray quilt that I posted last week, time will tell;)

Until then I am sending good vibes out to all of you that you will accomplish something fun this week!
