Some of you asked how I did this. Pictures aren't the best. But you will get the idea.
I cut my strips 2 inches wide. You can use whatever size you want, just be consistant. Pick the two strips you want for the foundation square. Sew those two strips together [ATTACH=CONFIG]169242[/ATTACH] cut them into two inch segments (if using two inch strips) [ATTACH=CONFIG]169243[/ATTACH] Press open [ATTACH=CONFIG]169244[/ATTACH] Choose next strip and sew these segments to it [ATTACH=CONFIG]169245[/ATTACH] Cut into segments [ATTACH=CONFIG]169246[/ATTACH] Press, add next strip [ATTACH=CONFIG]169247[/ATTACH] To cut into segments line up your ruler on the bottom and the side [ATTACH=CONFIG]169248[/ATTACH] continue adding strips until you get the block the size you want. [ATTACH=CONFIG]169250[/ATTACH] |
I like that idea! I have so many strips left from making my uneven log cabin, I might just use them to make a 'quick' log cabin with, thanks for the tute :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

The quilt is lovely! Your tute is very clear, thanks.

Just as I was looking for some inspiration for my next quilt, along came this tute. What a beautiful quilt that is. I've never tried a log cabin before, but, you certainly make is seem do-able, even for me. Thank you.

That is gorgeous fabric!!! Where did you get it? Thank you so much for the tut, I'm so new to quilting I have water dripping from behind my ears and I'm just itching to try a log cabin block. I just bought a new sewing machine and am still learning to use it. Thanks again for the tut.

So much easier than the way I tried doing a log cabin the first time! I had said NEVER AGAIN, but now I'm ready to give it a second chance.
|
I've seen so many log cabins done with PP, that I thought maybe this method was not as good. Thank you for reinforcing the ease of this block. I will now do another log cabin.
|
I love the floral fabrics you use! Really a fast way to make this blocks
|
thank you
|
great tutorial. Will try this down the line sometime. Thanks
|
I think I am kind of slow today. It took me to read this tut 3 times before I understood the technique.
now that I got it right, lol, I think I will try it... this seems much easier than the regular method. thanx |
thanks for the tut. now I can try it with your help it should work out well.
