    This is a quilt I made for my "baby" sister. She chose all the colors, the pattern, the backing, everything. She paid for it all too.

    This took over a year to make and it truly was a labor of love. I don't know that I'll ever do another log cabin though because of all the pieces required and time involved.

    Final size is queen.
    I did sid but wish I had done an overall free motion pattern instead.
