Cabins in the Woods

I've been having fun this week making these easy house and tree blocks. This project is enjoyable and fast and I can't wait to get the blocks together for a seasonal table runner for late summer and early fall. I have a hall table that will be the perfect spot for this directional runner. The pattern is Base Camp by Sweetwater and the fabric is Timber, also by Sweetwater.

I did bring out a tool I don't often use to make these blocks. That is the Mini Simple Folded Corners Ruler by Doug Leko. It was just what I needed to make the roof units for the house blocks.

Working on this table runner has definitely put me in the mood for my short getaway to Lake Tahoe. We leave Sunday for a few days and I can't wait for the cooler temperatures, the fresh air, and most of all, the Lake!

Here is an update on my Halloween Memories project. Each day I try to make one or two more of these blocks, and as you can see it is coming along.

That's all I have for now. Time to get ready for my little getaway to the mountains. Hope you all haave a great weekend. I will try to post some photos of Archie on his very first vacation with his family!

  1. Darling table runner! It would go perfectly in our home. Problem is I’m in the mood to finish UFO’s. May have to sneak this pattern in the house anyway.

  2. The runner is super cute! It’s fun to have a little project in between the more intense ones. Have a great little vacation!

  3. Your runner is inspiring you to go enjoy your time among real-life trees! 🌲🌲 Archie will enjoy walks by the lake & so many new sniffs to sniff!
