What a great idea for putting your strips into, no getting in a mess or dropping any onto the floor. Love your quilt pattern, can't wait to see it done, your fabric is beautiful. :thumbup:

Really, really, really like that border twisted. Makes it so different and it is a beautiful top! Thanks for sharing.

It will be 48" x 36" without borders - I haven't decided on borders yet, will piece the middle first! Anyway, I just cut all my strips at 1 1/4" wide and 1" wide unfinished and laid them out in cutlery trays ready to go! I'm piecing the normal way rather than PP - good practice for those accurate scant 1/4" seams!

Copy her picture and arrange your log cabins the same way. Remember it's the uneven log cabin.
