Here are two quilts I am working on, a log cabin and weaver fever. Both are pretty wrinkled from being put up for so long, they do lay flat :-) . I need motivation and decided Id post them here for everyone to see. I cant get the colors to show up the way I want but they are close. Just ignore all those threads, I dont clip em till all the blocks are put together. In the log cabin, can you spot the not one, but TWO mistakes? I didnt even see them until I was looking at the pics!! Need to re-do those. :oops: There will also be appliqued stars in the center of each light colored cabin., with a piano key border made from the block scraps.

They are both lovely, esp the log cabin, I do intend to make one soon.
Your colour choice is great.

Both are pretty but I really like the colors in the log cabin. It took me a little while to find the second mistake. I don't think I would have seen it if you hadn't told us there was two mistakes. :lol:

Both are very nice. I especially like the weaver fever one. I have never seen this pattern before and like it.

Glad you pulled them out to show us. Love the weaver fever. Did a queen size one about 10 yrs. ago for a fund raiser for DD close up trip. Also your log cabin has great scrap colors. You should be so proud! thanks for sharing.

Both are beautiful! I'm working on a log cabin now, debating how I'm going to arrange the blocks. I think you may have decided that for me!
