Thanks! Maybe I'll go out to see if the quilt shop still has more. Unfortunately, they are having a going-out-of-business sale.

I did one with a jelly roll and the "Marti Mitchell - My Favorite Log Cabin Ruler." The ruler made the cutting so easy! I took a class. We began by sorting lights and darks then cut the strips using the ruler. Each strip was cut into six pieces and oe strip was cut as the center block. We were able to chain piece the blocks and made most of them in a six hour class!
It was great fun. I gave it to my DS and DDIL as an anniversary gift!
Blessings.

Beautiful ! Just wondering what size your blocks were? I have found a patter for a log cabin trying to figure how many honey buns I would need to do it.

sure- why not??? log cabin blocks can be made with any width logs you want- some people like them 1" wide- some a little wider- some really wide- sometimes a variety of widths- a honey bun would be a great way to work on one---all the strips pre-cut for you and (hopefully) straight- makes that log-cabin go faster.

I am using them for making log cabins for a BOM UFO that I am working on. They definitely save time, especially if it a roll from a line that I may not commonly use or have in my stash.

As long as your log cabin pieces are going to be 1" finished, I see no reason why not to use them
