Design Wall Monday Feb 6, 2012

I made some more of these log cabin blocks -- they're just 5" finished, so it will take a lot more to get a quilt from these!  So far, it's only 32" by 42", and that's not counting the seam allowance that will shrink it more.  Taking a photo of it really shows how the colors will interplay, and will help decide the final layout!  I am sooooo loving the colors!

My friend MA finished a mystery quilt, and brought it to me for quilting.  I only took a picture of a corner, but I really like the way it turned out, and, more importantly, so does she!  She likes a little bling in her quilts, so I quilted it with gold-color rayon, and it looks like metallic.

I'm even getting work done on my February UFO challenge.  I'm really liking the way it's looking!  Thank you, Judy!

  1. Love those little bright log cabins! Small blocks make for such a fun design, but yes, it does take more and lots of sewing. It will be worth it.
