I just finished this wall hanging--it's for my son's girlfriend for Christmas. It's 53 inches wide. I made this up--but how easy would it be to add some log cabin strips to large squares of a print you didn't want to cut into small pieces!! I plan on making several squares and putting them into a quilt (no ideas on fabric yet)--well, after the next 3 projects... :wink:

Can you see the quilting? It's dog bones. :D I'm not a good quilter at all--this is as big a project I'd attempt. No puckers, but it was close.

PS--I just got better pictures--and turned them so it won't make you crazy. :wink:

This is great! Being a dog lover, I especially like it, but dang, you also chose colors I love. (At least what's showing up on the screen. :D )
