I am also a fan of Log Cabin. I made a quilt 2 yrs. ago that had the center piece with pictures of Civil War Pictures, and the Gettysburg Address. I made it for my husband's b.day, and have received lots of compliments on it.
I also like Irish Chain. I watched my mom make this quilt when I was growing up. I liked the idea of the chain piecing, ect,. I am going to make one as soon as some of the other projects get completed.
I am also a believer in big blocks and some of the "ol favorites!"
