national sewing month project #6

The past few days have looked like this...


and when this happens, you might find me doing this...

or this...

and today I chose the latter.  I had some fabrics left over from the table runners that my BFF and I made last fall and while I am in the midst of making another runner using Flying Geese pattern, today I belted this out. I love it!  I have made three Log Cabin quilts in my quilt making career and I do love this pattern.  I decided to lengthen the Log Cabin block by adding a half square triangle and trimming it to the correct size needed.




 The binding is scrappy, I used the pieces that were left over from when I pieced the Log Cabin block in the center of the table runner.  I hope your having a great day!  I am off to listen to some great music by some great artist and start some soup for dinner!

    Thanks Jenny! It was fun, quick and exciting to finish a small project in just a few hours! I still was not able to figure out how to follow your blog. I don't see the tool bar anywhere on your blog.. your still using blogger right?

    It's perfect for fall! You're so talented and creative! I'm lucky to get a straight stitch sewn... I'm getting there... slowly!

    I love how you combined the fabrics to make the runner! It's really beautiful. I'm not a sewer at all, but my mom loves to quilt. Thanks for linking up with this or that thursday today!
