For Christmas, I made a giant, single log cabin block as a throw for a sweetheart in the nursing home where I work... Each log was 6" wide, finished... started with a 6.5" (unfinished) center and went from there... It turned out about 48" square. I used some stash fabric, and it went together quickly. Unfortunately, it only lasted about 2 weeks with the sweet lady... still haven't found it...
