I haven't made a quilt for my bed yet because it's a king size. But I finally decided I would design and piece a top and maybe I can persuade hubby to let me send it out to be quilted. I designed this top with my EQ6 and I just ordered the fabric for it. The fabric line is "Farm House Retreat" by Andover Fabrics. I ordered from my favorite online store: The Fat Quarter Shop....

The finished quilt will be 112" X 112". I'm excited to get my fabric and start working on it.

This is going to be gorgeous, Abundant Feathers for the quilting!

Thanks! The fabrics in the EQ drawing are the exact fabrics I will be using.

I love the layout design of your log cabin quilt, how it's just a bit different from the usual layouts you see for this pattern - it will be beautiful! :D

debcavan 03-21-2011 04:13 PM

Yah that is gorgous. The colors are great

I have a king size bed also and keep thinking I'll make one for our bed but I haven't decided on a pattern. I love this log cabin design! It'll be beautiful :) Be sure to show us the finished quilt.

That is a beautiful quilt. Cant wait to see it done!

Abby'smom 03-21-2011 05:39 PM

that will be a big quilt -- I like mine to hang down almost to the floor on the sides and turn down a little on the top -- I am almost afraid to measure them -- I think of them as 6 big blocks wide and 4 or 5 long -- your quilt will be beautiful

SewMomma66 03-21-2011 06:40 PM

Very nice! I love the red.

tutty 03-21-2011 07:20 PM

WOW ! And I mean WOW ! Beautiful

JillC 03-21-2011 07:28 PM

I am also doing a king size. I think Barn Raising is what the layout is called. It's going to be a beauty!

Harmony 03-21-2011 07:33 PM

This is just gorgeous! How big are your blocks? This will be a huge job--just take your time and enjoy the process (while saving your pennies to have it longarmed within an inch of its life!) Please keep us posted!

Kitsapquilter 03-21-2011 08:33 PM

That will be gorgeous...can't wait to see when you get it done.
Love the red and beige colors!

Thank you. The blocks are 12". You offer very good advice....taking my time and enjoying the process is something I forget to do at times. :thumbup:

It will be beatiful. Are you going to use the colors shown? Those are very good. Just curious.

I've finished half of the blocks! 32 done....32 to go. This is a BIG quilt! It's going to need its own postal code when I'm done. :-D

I couldn't fit it all in the frame.

Thanks for sharing this pic. I have 64 log cabin blocks all done but have been wondering how to lay it out. Mine is a scrappy log cabin but has the light and dark side. I like your lay-out. Hope you don't mind if I copy it! Now maybe I will get it done since I see this nice lay-out!

By the way....after scrolling down and seeing the close-up of your fabrics I am loving your colors together. Nice job done!

Thanks, Linda. Feel free to borrow my layout. :D
