log cabin

It seems like the log cabin has it! Do you think if I do 6 different lights, mediums and darks that'll be enough to do a scrappy. If anyone has read my "Can't wrap my head around this!" they'll understand that one I've never done a scrappy and two I believe I have distinct control issues (I've been a matchy person)! So I was going to try a CONTROLED scrappie. Do you think 6 each of each grouping will be enough?

Yes, 6 should be enough. If it's not, you can always add some more, because it is scrappy. Going to be sharp, love blues.

I love the Depression Block on Quilter's Cache. It works with any block size and color combination as long as you have light/dark. It is easy to do and makes a nice masculine quilt.

Log cabin is good for a man. I paper pieced a crazy quilt that would be great also with the different shades of blue.

I just did a quilt for my son with brown and gold pinwheels ....it was easy and looked great. I think it could work in a combination of blues
