I really like your log cabin.
But this shrinkage issue is ONE of the reasons I don't make quilts that serve as bedspreads, that *have* to end up a certain size. I make them "to be comfortable" enough on given bed, or sofa, and let them accessorize the bed on top of the bedspread. Much less stress on me.

That is so pretty! You did a great job with the fabrics. So sorry to hear about the shrinkage, though. Yikes!
