I got it and saved it. Thank you SEW much for sharing with us, Jan.

Thanks so much, Jan and others! I have a wonderful article somewhere about using quilts as backdrops "back in the day".

i love this log cabin variation!

Thanks Jan in Va....i liked this formated instructions/measurement very much! Was easy to understand.

Thank you for this post and especially in the pdf format. My small quilt group members are all making log cabin quilts for our next show. We hope to illustrate the various interpretations of the pattern. I will show this to the other members who are looking for new ideas.

Thanks Jan, I love the quilt and the picture of the family.

Jan, thank you very much for taking the time to post this awesome pattern from days gone by. What a keeper. :)

Wow! I'm SO glad this tute of Donna's family quilt has been such a hit for everyone!

It was a challenge to figure out at first, but then I realized it was "just another log cabin variation" and I was off and running. Can't wait to make it myself!

I do hope all of you will share your quilts at some point.

Love the history
 

That pic and pattern are such a peice of history. Lucky to have as a keepsake.
