Thank you for sharing this tute!! I have a book by Sharlene Jorgenson that gives instructions to make these but I like your picture tutorial better!! It's much easier to understand how to go about it by looking at the photos rather than drawn illustrations.
In Dec of 2000 a friend gave me a tiny one that had been made into a Christmas ornament. It was made with a narrow long cabin pattern, but I have been making crumb quilt squares and now I want to try one of these with crumbs. I really like how your selvage chicken looks!! I just measured the square that was used, for the Christmas ornament and it is 2 inches (finished size).
