:-D :-D :-D I like the lay out that I got on this one. I just have to put on some borders and I think a dark one will frame it very nice. I have some strips left over and I will play around with it tomorrow. I love it so what diya think????? Have a great evening, Huggies, Fay...........P.S. Took the picture wiht and wiht out a flash,, funny one quilt can look so diffrent in a diffrent light.

Nice!!

You did a great job on that twisted log cabin.
My first impression was that it looked like alien eyes. Then I thought maybe peacock feathers. Either way it's gonna be a gorgeous quilt. I think dark blue borders will set off those blocks nicely.

That's a perfect name for this quilt.

ALIEN EYES

Love it. Is it your own pattern? If not, where did you get it?

It looks like 2 different, but really nice quilts. I agree that a dark border would be good.

beautiful job Fay. Like the colors you picked out, very nice, Thank you for sharing :)

Bobbinchick 02-26-2011 12:09 AM

The pattern is in a book called Log Cabin With a Twist. I found that book and a template set on ebay. I did not paper piece this quilt as I used the template and it worked really well. That is a good name for this quilt. Alien Eyes, I just might call it that. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay

That's what I saw too, but I did not want to sound rude. To me it does look like Alien eyes.

No special ruler, I used the template I found on ebay.

Latrinka 02-26-2011 12:42 PM

Very beautiful, love it!

Neena 02-26-2011 12:43 PM

I have never seen this pattern before...love it! It is so cool!

nativetexan 02-26-2011 01:16 PM

that is gorgeous so far. lots of going around and around.

Maia B 02-26-2011 01:48 PM

So pretty. I don't see alien eyes, but then I've never seen an alien. Maybe when I do, I'll think "the eyes look just like twisted log cabin blocks". How big are your blocks? Any particular resource?

kim_s 02-26-2011 01:57 PM

Different but very cool! Nicely done!

scrapykate 02-26-2011 01:59 PM

Jim's Gem 02-26-2011 10:04 PM

Very pretty!!! I was thinking it looked like some kind of Alien Eyes and then I spotted that someone else said that too!!!

wanabquilter 02-26-2011 10:51 PM

awe some is what came to my mind.

gzuslivz 02-26-2011 10:54 PM
