Still need to sew the bindings--they are pinned in the photos. I'm letting them rest in a pile now so I can get back to the fun stuff. I can finished them in the evenings ;)

I'm stock piling for the Nov craft show--hope to receive the confirmation soon.

I have 120 log cabin blocks under way. They will turn into toppers.

Christmas runners. These are 14 by 50. I experimented with longer ones and don't like it. I'm sticking to 40 florals. lol

Close up--I used fabrics I had from making tiny log cabin ornaments.

Barn panel. A friend wanted to buy it but the blue fabric, although the perfect color is very thin. It's hand dyed--got it from ebay. I just can't sell it when I know it might not last. I'll hang it here and make her another. I have many of these panels to turn into wall hangings.

I searched around for Christmas fabric that would make good runners, but didn't find much. It'd be too hard to match colors on-line. The ones I saw that made me itchy to try were at a LQS and were $10 a yard and I just didn't want to invest in seasonal fabrics. Since selling is for fun--I must stick to what makes me happy. :D

I couldn't help but notice the green grass. I haven't seen green grass since spring and that was short-lived!

Karla your stuff is always so fun to see. I love your color selections. I have been collecting fat quarters to make my own watercolor log cabin as you have done a few of. I just love them and in the next year or so will make mine. Thanks for being so inspiring!

Ours had truned brown and crispy, but then the rain came. This is greener than it's been in weeks.

Nice runners; love your barn panel!

davis2se 08-27-2011 03:19 AM

I love your pieces, especially the log cabins. Since I've first seen your posts I've tried to figure out though, the dimensions of the strips. In each of your posts it looks to me like the dark strips are significantly wider than the light strips. Is that right? if so, will you tell us what the width dimensions are for both the light and the dark??

Sewfine 08-27-2011 05:49 AM

Those are beautiful. I especially love #7. I am trying to make a wedding quilt with that same pattern from one of the blocks from the book "Make your first Quilt with M'Liss Rae Hawley. Thanks for sharing.

sandpat 08-27-2011 06:06 AM

Those all look great Karla...but your stuff always does! How much do you have piled up for the craft show???

Thanks, sandpat! I'd have to take inventory! There are many items upstairs on top of a bed covered with a quilt from JCP. :-D There are enough bigger lap quilts already (I won't make those to sell anymore), so I'm only making small stuff. No more bookmarks or potholders--although I have some of the later ready. I have a few doll quilts, and baby quilts ready. I will concentrate on the four block log cabins and the 40" bargello runners only from now till the show. I should have plenty of stuff.

I've decided to not even put the bigger items out--but to just have a page of photos, and if someone is interested--then get them out. Should leave more room for the small, more likely to sell items.
