On my Design Wall
Besides the quilt top I was given (you can read about it on my previous Sunday post), I have these squares on my design wall:
They are log cabin blocks I am working on trying to find a use for all the solid strips of fabric that were donated to St. Ann's. I'm using Jean Wright's Log Cabin Trim Tool. See a video here . This lets you make log cabin blocks fast without cutting all those strips - great for scrappy log cabin. The strips have to be at least 1 1/2" wide; otherwise you can use any width. Check it out. Have 4 more rows to go on these.

Ohh it's going to be beautiful Angie... My design wall has a Quilting the Garden block that needs some cutting and arranging of appliqué pieces. Falling behind and need to get caught up. Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteI think the log cabins in solids is a terrific idea.
ReplyDeleteI have this ruler and love it. Right now I'm doing a really scrappy light and dark, but I want to do one like yours with a controlled palette. Great tool for a really nice block.
ReplyDeleteLove these cheery colors :D And I can't wait to see how you merge them with the striped fabrics!
