Whoa; considering that I had just posted before you that she might consider a grid pattern of straight lines, I feel your comment might be considered a bit harsh......"just plain ugly"? Really? Not your preference perhaps, but that's whats makes the art of quilting so wonderful; it's art and there are no quilt police! Beauty IS in the eye of the beholder after all.

Here's a really cute (and easy) way to do a very large qayg log cabin:

the back does turn out kinda plain this way tho.....and I suppose there's no reason why you couldn't put a little more design into each block b4 moving on to the next one.

Jan, I am so sorry. When I started my post yours had not shown up yet. I was called to the phone and submitted the reply 20 or so minutes after I started it. The outcome is I did indeed seem to be replying to you directly and way too harshly. To say that straight lines across narrow strips are unattractive TO ME would have done just fine. I do believe that I got my info in a class taught by Linda Tayler but she probably did not use the "U" word.
No offense taken, Topstitch, honestly. Thank you for letting me know though.
