Hi Buzy Lizzy Thanks for the compliment. This is actaully a UFO quilt that I just finally had Shelley quilt. I did it in 2008.
So I'll see what I can remember. The log cabin strips were
2 1/2" strips. I believe the blocks were 18 1/2" Unfinished.
Shelley still has it or I'd measure to be sure.
I was trying my hand at doing the turn applique method but was not very successfull so I changed to just the buttonhole stitch. I have some embellisments to put on it yet so as soon I get it back I'll be adding some beads and buttons to some of the flowers. So its still going to be a WIP.
And don't worry your not being nosy at all. Let me know if you have anymore questions about .
Thanks again. And Thanks to everyone for all the wonderful compliments.
