Log Cabin Table Runner

January has been a busy month and I've loved every minute of it. After joining several sew alongs in order to keep me sewing rather than sitting and procrastinating I finally finished The 2014 It's A New Year Sew Along. From the 1st January up until the 29th January we had to make log cabins. We could make as many or as few as we wanted so long as we kept to the specified measurements. I rushed along in the hope that I would get a table runner made and was pleased to end up with two.

This is the first one I completed which you can read about HERE.


This is the second one completed just in time.


I made a total of 35 blocks and had three left over which I could make into mug rugs.




I really enjoyed making these and thanks to Caroline at SewCanShe I now have two table runners both made in a month, something I would never have done if it wasn't for the sew along.

The sew along is now closed but you can still go over and make some for yourself and also take a look at some of the lovely things people have made.
