Purple and Yellow Tablerunner is Done

My purple and yellow log cabin table runner was started a couple weeks ago. At that time, I shared the fabric and one completed block with you.



I am happy to give you an update with my completed runner. I folded the runner so you can see the backing; the backing fabric is the same green fabric used for the center square. 





I used the Cross Hatch layout for the blocks. You can see the layout better with the runner on the table.



Here's the reason for my color choice of the purple and yellow fabrics. It's my Peggy Karr Glass plate that I recently purchased on a trip. I love the plate and knew I wanted to make a runner to sit it on. 




The purple flower arrangement isn't new but was hiding in a storage tub in my garage. 







There you have it, my purple and yellow table runner. Hope you can leave me a message and tell me what you think. Thanks for stopping by - Judy.

A New Log Cabin Design in Purples and Yellows

I started a new log cabin tablerunner today. This time, I did not use a jellyroll and was very careful in my fabric selection especially since I wasn't happy with the jellyroll strips for my last project. My fabrics include three purples and three yellows.



My quilting guild challenged us to make projects using the log cabin designs so I am continuing this challenge with my newest project. I think I have adequate contrast and saturation with these fabrics. 


I have one block completed to share with you. The other three blocks are just about done too.  The center block is green and I plan to use this green for the backing and maybe a border.




I'll give you an update in a few days when this project is done. Thanks for stopping by and hope you have time to leave a message - Judy.

My Not So Typical Log Cabin Placemats & Runner Are Done

I did get my "Not So Typical Log Cabin Placemats and Runner are done and on the table for St. Patrick's Day.



I used a jelly roll for this project and haven't been exactly please with the color saturation and not enough contrast in the strips. 



I'm thankful it's done and I can move on to the next project. 


If you would like to see my table for St. Patrick's Day, click here.

Thanks for stopping by - Judy.
