    Gorgeous quilt. Great job. Two inch strips are perfect for a king. Good luck.

    Your log cabin turned out beautiful. The small strips really help the colors merge.

    Beautiful!!! This is on my to do list but have not tried yet. I keep thinking it is too hard.
    Even purchased the die from Accuquilt. I know I must try though. Thanks for sharing.

    It's beautiful but I can't imagine doing 1" strips. Wow!

    Yes, I can imagine. 1152 strips and 144 2 inch squares.... LOL. I only know that because I just made a king size log cabin quilt for my brother... LOL

    Lovely quilt and I would never have guessed it was from scraps! I agree if you use wider strips the king would not take
    so long. The chain piece method makes it go faster too!

    The quilt is beautiful and shows you are very talented. I have just started quilting and love doing it. Hope to become as good as you some day, but it is a learn as you go and self taught thing. Thanks so much for sharing.

    Thank goodness for chain piecing! This would have taken at least twice as long if I did one square at a time, and a whole lot more thread.
