Here is a picture of a log cabin quilt I made 2 years ago, and have lost the pattern. Anyone have the pattern? I saw the quilt in a quilt shop in West Linn Oregon, they are now closed......Help

Sure is pretty! I'm sure someone will tell you where to get the pattern.

Oh my! That sure is pretty! Sorry I don't know where to find the pattern tho.

I don't know but I wanted to say that it is a beautiful quilt, and welcome to the board!

Beautiful quilt. Welcome to the board.

What a beautiful quilt!! :D I don't
have that pattern, but would sure
like too!! Good Luck finiding it.
:D :D :D :D

By the way, Hello & welcome from the state of Washington!!

Hi,

It is a beautiful quilt. I might even attempt to make it. Log cabins are so easy and a good way to use up left over strips etc.
It doesn't look complicated. It appears to be log cabin blocks with six rows of colored fabrics set on point and put together with white sashing. The smaller blocks are only three rows of color and then white cut in half to made the set in triangles. The size would be determined either by the number of blocks or the width of the strips used to make the blocks.

Your quilt is beautiful, if you find the pattern let me know. Thanks

Man, I just wanna see more pictures of that quilt. It's beautiful. Love the colors and the pattern.

Can't help you on where to find it, but I sure do like it! Love those pastels!

Love it.

Ditto here, beautiful quilt, and welcome to the board.

What a beautiful quilt with the log cabins set on point. Why not make a second quilt by measuring the one you already have?

What a magnificent quilt! I would love the pattern as well please.
I will be making a biography quilt for my daughter and she wants the fabrics to be in the log cabin blocks. Each fabric represents something about her life. So far I have over 80 fabrics! I keep looking for a way to do and THIS IS IT!!!!! The white in between allows everything to POP so beautifully. Did you do it? I am very impressed and now, I can't wait to start. Please let me know about the pattern so I can begin. WOW!! WOW!!!WOW!!! Thanks, Phyl :!:

YES! You did make it. Great job. Beautiful result. Phyl

I would also like to have the pattern Very Beautiful.. If ONLY I could make something this beautiful WOW WOW :D

It is a lovely quilt and beautiful colors. Have you taken it to a quilt shop? Maybe they would know.

I hope this doesn't sound selfish but I too would love that pattern. I would like to do a log cabin, its on my to do list. Have some blocks that I have made from PPing that are log cabin, so I know I am hooked. Thanks a lot everyone that is doing a search for this one. I have very little imagination, so have to use other peoples ideas. Thanks.

Rita

It is very pretty & I too would love that pattern. Im making my first log cabin that Im hand piecing.. Hope you or someone finds that pattern

Beautiful and so delicate. Great job. Hope you find the pattern.

While this quilt looks fabulous, the pattern appears to be fairly simple. It looks to be standard log cabin blocks placed on point, with a white sashing strip between them. Then at the bottom and presumably the sides and top also, there is a 1/2 log cabin block on point to make up part of the white setting triangles. I can't see the sides and top in the picture to be certain. But that's what it looks like to me.

Yes, it does look fairly simple. Having the pattern would give you the preparation you would need to cut the pieces though. Since it doesn't look as if anyone can find the pattern yet, I counted the strips and starting with the first little box and continuing counting to the end of the "cabin", there are 19 pieces. (I THINK. I am looking at the picture and am trying to count correctly.) The smaller cabin looks as if it has 10 pieces. I would guess the exact size of each strip is up to the quilter...wider,larger.....thinner, smaller. It starts with a small dark, a small light, a light strip, then the usual two darks, two lights. PLEASE don't take my word for it! Try to count it out and if you try it, I hope it works. I think I will try it after I do the two quilts I am currently working on. Thanks for reminding me it is basic. It should be a terriffic project and I will try it...later!!!!LOL!!! :lol:

I love it also. Please let me know is you find the pattern for it -
it will be put on the to do list!!!!

Closer invesitgation of the picture indicates the following:

1. 1.5" finished size squares for the log cabin centers.
2. 1.5" finished size strips around the log cabin.
3. The strips were applied in a counter-clockwise fashion.
4. 5 strips per side x 4 sides + center = 21 pieces per log cabin.
5. 2 strips per side x 4 sides + center = 9 pieces per 1/2 log cabin.
6. 5 lighter colored and 5 darker color fabrics are used for each block.
7. The same darker colored fabric was used for all the centers.
8. White sashing is 1.5" finished size also.

Using the Eleanor Burns Quilt in a Day method of piecing log cabin blocks:
1. Cut all strips 2" wide. Will yield 1.5" finished size.
2. Cut the center 2" long from a 2" strip Will yield 1.5" finished size.
3. Strips 1 & 2 = lighter colored fabric #1.
Strips 3 & 4 = darker colored fabric #1.
Strips 5 & 6 = lighter colored fabric #2.
Strips 7 & 8 = darker colored fabric #2.
Strips 9 & 10= lighter colored fabric #3.
Strips 11 & 12 = darker colored fabric #3.
Strips 13 & 14 = lighter colored fabric #4.
Strips 15 & 16 = darker colored fabric #4.
Strips 17 & 18 = lighter colored fabric #5.
Strips 19 & 20 = darker colored fabric #5.
4. Sew the first strip to the center. Cut off the strip to match the center's length.
5. Turn counter-clockwise and sew on the second strip. Cut off the strip to match the length of the center + the first strip.
6. Continue in a counter-clockwise manner, untill all 20 strips have been applied to the block.
7. For the smaller 1/2 log cabin blocks, do the above using only 8 strips around the center.

I hope this helps.

Wow.. I am amazed at how you calculated it.. thanks.. will have to deft. try making this quilt.

WOW!!! You HOPE this helps!!!
My goodness! You worked it all out! I'm not even going to ask how you knew the sizes. You must be an amazzzzzzzzzzzzzing quilter!!!!!LOL! Thanks for your expertise and your willingness to share it!
It's going to be a "GO" after the other two quilts I HAVE to finish! Thanks again mytwopals, soooooooooooooooo much!

The only calculation I am not totally certain on is the 1.5" finished strip width. Perhaps the quilt maker can measure the strips and confirm it for us. :D

It's very pretty - I have never seen the pattern, but it's gorgeous!

I can't believe the luck but some good and some not so good I just went to a quilt show and I was looking through the pictures and there is your quilt! But I saw like 600 quilts in 2 hours and I don't remember a thing about it... :oops:

Now there is a VARIATION on a theme......
This one doesn't have all of the lights on one side and the darks on the other. I also think the white between the log cabins is thinner. It's gorgeous either way but I am going to keep it light on one side of each box and dark on the other. I can't wait to get started but that will be over the winter and after I have finished my two others! Take a number! That's my new mantra! Thanks for being a great spotter. :lol:

that is beautiful !

If you used a commercial pattern, I bet this is the one:

Terri Atkinson is one of my favorite pattern-writers.

Beautiful pattern, Thank you for finding/posting it Cathe!

I saw a similiar pattern in the Fons and Porter magazine ad for a pattern titled "Opal" Try their website for the picture and the month it appeared in their magazine

Lois, this is one of the prettiest log cabin quilts I've seen! Do you happen to have the E. Burns Log Cabin Quilt In A Day book? There are many different ways to lay out the blocks in it and I'm wondering if your layout may be in it as well. I have the book but it's hidden some where in my vast library of quilting books that I've aquired at estate sales this past year so I'm not able to check it myself. Good luck in your search and if you're successful, please let all of us know where you find it so that we can get one to make this quilt for ourselves. I love your choice of pastels. I've got a fantastic stash of beautiful, bright, colorful material but I find myself becoming more infatuated with the pastels & the 20's through the 40's prints.
Keep up the good work.
Karenn

thank you, the quilt was a gift to my brother and his wife, so I don't have it nearby; its in Oregon, I'm in Calif.....I'm still trying to find the pattern, so thanks for your help. should be easy enough, now
Lois

I just ordered it, will see if its the same. Can't believe there aren't 100's of quilters who have seen it, it seems so common.
Thank you for the info, I have a ton of 1930's fabrics, need to sew instead of shop..
maybe...
Lois

thank you will try, maybe be lucky
Lois

Very pretty--it's a nice twist on the log cabin pattern. I love all quilts with lots of white in them!
