Plaid log cabin - FINALLY finished!
2 Attachment(s)
I made this quilt top 18 years ago for my DH for our 2nd wedding anniversary - I wanted to hand quilt it, but after I did 2 blocks I decided that it wasn't "my thing" and I put it away! My Dh actually stopped asking me about it about 10 years ago! This year was our 20th anniversary and I decided that I should really finish it! I spent an entire weekend at "Quilt Camp" at a LQS quilting it on my machine and...I FINISHED IT! It looks great on our bed and he LOVES it! Thanks for looking! Hopefully this will work - I've never posted a photo before, so I'm crossing my fingers!

It is beautiful!!! So glad that you got it finished! I bet your husband was happy to see it!!!
|
I absolutely LOVE this quilt! You did a fantastic job - so what if it took a little longer than first planned? :) It's done and it's beautiful!
|
Wow! That is so cool. It looks really, really hard. It would have been a terrible shame to never finish it. Your description makes it sounds like maybe this was a first quilt. Was it?
|
well worth the wait!
|
Thank goodness he asked about it and that you finished it. I love it. Someday I want to make the log cabin pattern. It turned out just lovely.
|
A really beautiful quilt filled with so much love!! Thank you for sharing it :)
|
Wonderful quilt, I love log cabins made this way. I bet he was surprised. That is so cool.
|
I think it was actually my second quilt. If you look close - please don't! :) - you can see that I hadn't yet learned that I should have been squaring it up as I went along! I waited until each block was totally done and then squared up, so some of the outer "logs" are VERY narrow! OH WELL!
|
It's beautiful, and congratulations on finishing! :thumbup:
|

This one was worth the work and the wait. Stunning!
|
I really, really love how the plaids work so well. Beautiful job, glad you finished it!
|
It's very pretty and I can see why he kept asking you about it! It is a busy quilt and you'd never see the narrow logs!

That is just beautiful! Have you counted how many pieces are in it? What a lot of work went into that quilt.
|
That is neat. Never saw a plaid one before. Glad you got it finish.

Love your quilt, love plaids but never thought of a log cabin. Idea!!
|
I think you did a really great job on it. It's beautiful.
|
wow, that's a lot of work.
|
Thank you so much for the kind comments everyone! :)
|
Very pretty!!

I have always wondered about using plaids in a quilt, and you have proven that they work just fine. It is a gorgeous quilt, and plaid is so masculine. When I am able to get into my new sewing room, and sort through my stash, I am setting aside all the plaids and try this pattern. Great job.
|
Beautiful quilt and glad you finished ....thanks for sharing
|
Wow, I really feel better about how long it takes me to finish a quilt lol!
It's stunning! |
Beautiful! You did a great job!
|
That is so wonderful in the plaids. Congrats on finishing.
