A mag article saying log cabin quilts were soooo easy & great for beginners was all it took.
Knowing nothing about fabric grain,squaring blocks or using a quarter inch seam...a straight seam, you can imagine the results.
It was a few yrs & a few quilts later before I stopped admiring long enough to admit what a wonky quilt it was.
That was 20 yrs ago & I've never had the nerve to make another LC:-)
I love log cabins too. Unfortunatly I chose to do a table runner made up of blocks made with 1 inch strips! It was the second quilting project I did. It's amazing I stuck with quilting after that!
P.S. I have not tackeled another log cabin since. :)
