I wasn't going to bore you with these.. BUT they are made with new fabrics added in, AND since several said they want to make one... I thought at least a few would want to see this round. I have 53 done... maybe I could play around with a design... but I want to make a LOT more.

These are not sewed together.

Did I mention I really like these?? :D

OHHHHHH. Those are beautiful. What a great quilt. It's almost like art.

Very beautiful. Almost watercolor

Debbie1 04-04-2009 09:49 PM

I'm glad you finished some more - I love what you've done with the flowered log cabin - I've started buying flowered fabric because of what you've done - I absolutely love it!

jette 04-04-2009 09:57 PM

sorry - it is watercolor. :D

G-Maw Wilda 04-04-2009 10:08 PM

I love these blocks, you are going to have a beautiful quilt when you finish.

The floral fabric changes the look of the log cabin block. But I definately like if.

Joan 04-04-2009 10:11 PM

Karla, those are just gorgeous--can't wait to see it finished!
(hope it won't be another 15 years--lol)
What will the finished size be?

tlrnhi 04-05-2009 03:24 AM

Karla....the blocks are simply awesome. Beautiful! I'm in awe of them.
I need to pick my jaw up off the floor. Honest!
I really cannot wait until it is all done. You are going to have one heck of a time getting the squares layed out. I'll come and help if you want. I'll even take home the ones that you don't really like. That way, they aren't in your house taking up space. lol

katier825 04-05-2009 03:29 AM

Alabama-Quilter 04-05-2009 03:33 AM

omak 04-05-2009 06:52 AM

Beautiful!
i am not a flower person, but you have really shown me a fine example of what to do with those fabrics I end up with.
I am never bored looking at others' work, so you just keep working and snapping pictures.
You are an inspiration to all of us!

sewjoyce 04-05-2009 07:07 AM

Cathy M 04-05-2009 09:53 AM

Beautiful blocks! Did you get the pattern out of a book? (uh, so that 500 thousand of us can run out and buy it?) :) :) :) :)

Marcia 04-05-2009 10:05 AM

Karla--How big are these blocks and how big of a quilt are you making? Or are you making more than one quilt with them?? I think they are all beautiful and I can tell you are having a blast making them.

vicki reno 04-05-2009 11:20 AM

Never bored. I always like seeing what you have come up with!

Yvonne 04-05-2009 12:03 PM

Karla, This is going to be an heirloom for your grandkids to fight over! Beautiful!

Sharon M 04-05-2009 03:34 PM

absolutely gorgeous!! It always amazes me how different types of fabric can make a pattern look so different.

MollieSue 04-05-2009 03:55 PM

Karla - Truly BEAUTIFUL!!!! Please keep showing the pictures of it!!! :-)

Ninnie 04-05-2009 04:55 PM

Beautiful!

barnbum 04-05-2009 05:02 PM

Wow--thank you for all your kind words. :D :oops:

The pattern came from a magazine--forgot the title, but it focused on log cabins. It's old. If you're familiar with log cabins, all you need to know is to end with the lights and to cut the darks 1.5" and the lights 1". Most patterns have the darks finish the square.

The blocks are about 7.75". I don't know how big this quilt will be yet--but I want enough there to really see the design--whatever it is.

Ducky 04-06-2009 07:18 AM

That is just gorgeous!! I have GOT to stop looking at the other quilts and blocks on this site. :shock: I have seen so many that I love, and then put on my list of quilts to make. This is on the top of the list!
