here are some wool quilts we made a long time ago. Used to get dress weight wool scraps in the garment district of Boston. They were mostly plaids, stripes, and solids. The first three are tops only.

yes, we did not keep any of them. Not sure of the fiber content since we got the fabric as scraps. Cold water and air dry never hurt anything though. right???

OMG...What is the size of the log cabin quilt and how tiny are the logs? It is the prettiest log cabin one I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing!

The logs are about 1" before sewing. Made it with the scraps left over after making the other tops. It actually was sold to someone in Texas. Very subtle color scheme on the LC.
