Floral Log Cabin Update
 
2 Attachment(s)
Between hobbling around with a pulled hip muscle and then the flu, I've been SLOWLY working on the floral log cabin blocks. I managed to get a total of 18 blocks done this past week. 30 still to go, but only the last 2 rounds on each of those. I'm actually looking forward to doing one of these in pastel, maybe yellows, reds & oranges, maybe peaches and blues, maybe??? Yeah, ummm...I think I"m hooked! AND already have lots of extra pieces already cut, leftover ends from the strips, so can see a LOT more lob cabins in my quilting future.

Anyway, here's where I'm at as of today!

Finished grouping of four blocks:

It is beautiful!!! I have a floral log cabin on my bed. Log cabins are a favorite of mine.

So, so, so absolutely beautiful. I want to make one someday! Did you use a backing to sew them on?

dunster 01-13-2013 01:15 PM

Beautiful! I've been saving florals for the same purpose. They look so pretty together.

Very very appealing! The blue is so pretty and the florals do not overpower- it is beautifully balanced- well done!

Thanks!
No backing, just strip-sewed them. I'll still need to add batting and backing, etc.

You results are beautiful. Do share this beauty again when its quilted. I too have an addiction for making floral log cabins.... my motto is when in doubt make a log cabin.

GrannieAnnie 01-13-2013 07:44 PM

Your florals are pretty-----------BUT-------------I'm absolutely wild about white on white tonals. And you have a fantastic collection for your log cabins. Congrats on a beautiful job so far!

Got Quilts 01-13-2013 09:06 PM

Very striking.

busy fingers 01-13-2013 10:45 PM

That is going to be one gorgeous quilt when finished. Well done. Such pretty fabrics.

Love the contrasting colours and the florals are a tonic in this cold winter.
