First log cabin quilt
 
2 Attachment(s)
I'd been wanting to do a log cabin quilt. My brother-in-law requested a Kansas Jayhawks quilt, and I found fabric that had the school logo in red, perfect for the center of a log cabin square, I thought. So the "Jayhawks in the Ho-o-ouse" quilt was conceived. :) I machine-pieced it with a Brother PQ1500S and quilted it with a Bailey on a Grace frame. Thanks for looking!

How perfect is that! I really like the quilt and a perfect use of the theme of the fabric. I know this quilt will be loved and enjoyed by a super fan of the Kansas Jayhawks. Great quilt.

Great way to use the team fabric in a pretty quilt. Love log cabins.

Looks good!

JenelTX 02-22-2016 05:27 AM

Thanks, everyone! He did love it, said it was the best gift he'd ever received. I think he was joking when he made the request for a Jayhawks quilt, never thought I'd follow through with it. :) It was fun to surprise him.

It's great! I love it and love how you used the special fabric in the center. Clever.

Very nice quilt. I have a Brother PQ1500S also....don't you just love it?!

Great quilt! You did a good job with the log cabin and the Jayhawks.

JenelTX 02-22-2016 07:06 PM

Yes! It's such a great machine. No fancy doodads, just a very powerful, basic straight-stitch machine that is a workhorse. Love it!

Dina 02-22-2016 08:00 PM

What a great quilt! I have many relatives who would really like that!

Absolutely love the Jayhawks center block. I may have to do that with the Duke quilt I am planning. Thanks for the idea.

didn't read your description at first and thinking a really nice log cabin and then noticed the Jayhawks! Yea! Rock Chalk! And what a great idea for a log cabin, too!
