wow, thank you so much Stitchalong! This gives me a better idea of how it will look, but I was going to take it one step further and actually use 2 colors in the sashing. alternating yellow and green 2" x 2" (finished).
With the block being 12 1/2" I will need 3 "pieces" of each color.
The colors I am using are - beige and green scrappy for the actual log cabin block, then I have a nice bright yellow and sort of a pea green which I am thinking to use for the sashing blocks. Since I have a ton of the yellow and green for the sashing, I might just make up some and lay it beside it to see how those colors work.
But first I am making up all the blocks I can get out of the fabric I have to see just how big it would be without sashing.
I am aiming for a queen size at least
Thank you all for your suggestions! :)
