I love your vibrant colors. Your leaves really pop! Great job!

WOW! Now that you have proven to us that you are amazingly talented and creative, are you going to publish that pattern for us to purchase? I would be the first in line.
BOTH quilts are exquisite! |
What a great job of making something new out of an idea you found. I love that about quilting...things kind of meld together in our heads...and eventually they become quilts. Great job.
|
Holy cow you did a great job!

Thank you for all the wonderful comments. I really had fun making the quilt. I sketched it out in EQ7, if anyone would like it, you can PM me, and I when I figure out how to email a quilt in EQ7, I will send it to you. I will post approx. directions here by Monday, Oct. 28.
Thanks again! |

about 1 1/2 years ago I posted a picture of a quilt that I saw on an Amish web site, and I was looking for a pattern. Couldn't find one, so by looking at the picture, I made my own pattern. It finished at 120 x 120. The first picture is the Amish quilt, the second - the purple one is my quilt.

Totally gorgeous. Fantastic job!!!! Would love to get your pattern!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing your lovely quilt. I don't have EQ7 but will be watching in Monday for the directions. Log cabin in one of my favorite designs and I love leaves. |

Below are some general directions for the quilt. I've also include pictures from the EQ7 program:
Bittersweet Autumn Leaf quilt All fabric is from the Benartex collection - Bittersweet You can google "Amish log cabin leaf quilts" and see pictures of similar ones. 24 leaf blocks - made from Eleanor Burns pattern - Autumn Leaves. I made each leaf from a different fabric. I also had to make the background fabrics about ¼" larger than the pattern called for, so that the leaf block would match the size of my log cabin. I found another leaf pattern "Lazy Leaves, by Far-Flung Quilts", and I like this leaf better, but I couldn't easily figure out how to increase the background fabric to make it the same size as my log cabin - 10 ½". 96 log cabin blocks all strips cut 2" wide, then sub cut ( you will need 96 of each piece) Assemble in typical log cabin, starting with the centers green and cream 2". Block finishes at 10 ½" Green center: 2" Gold: 3 ½" , 5" Orange 6 ½", 8" Purple 9 ½", 11" Cream, 2", 3 ½", 5", 6 ½", 8", 9 ½" |
You did a wonderful job recreating the quilt. Love your colors!
