Thank you MTS you just gave me my next project. Thanks
Like, how easy it that, right? :thumbup:


@Bkrenning -
Ah, well that's a possibility. I wouldn't have come up with that based on the OP's description, but it's certainly a nice layout.
The colors won't come through for some odd reason but it is a traditional log cabin block--red in the center, white on one side & blue on the other and they are arranged in a very large starburst pattern. Between each block is a sashing strip in blue with little yellow flying geese on each end and yellow corner stones between each strip.

Aha! I figured out how to get it into color!

This is it, would you happen to have measurements on how to make this block? (hint, hint)

Sew two triangles on each end of the sashing corners and then sew the ends to a solid block.

Diane - it is a sashed log cabin- the dark blue is the sashing with a star at the end of it.

I'm glad. ;-)
It totally depends on big you want it. I could give you the measurements for a 5" block but I doubt you want that.
If you're happy with the proportions of the image, let me the know the finished block size you want.

Fons & Porter love of Quilting magazine, Dec 2010 has a log cabin star table runner done in a Christmas print. Beautiful topper. A bugger to do. My scrappy group is working on this. Everyone having difficulity. The centers are diamonds instead of squares. Gorgous when finished

Thanks to MTS for helping me with what I needed. I have offered her something in return for all her help and she didn't even acknowledge my email. If someone knows MTS, please pm me so that I can send her something nice. thanks.

Please let me do something. You took a lot of time to help me and I want to show my appreciation in a small way. What do you collect or is there a color you love, just something. I truly want to do this.
