Wonky Log Cabin Top


Wonky Log Cabin
Fields and Furrows setting
60 x 72

I used more bright strings as well as low volume strings to make this one. 

I was going to use the traditional red for the center squares but when I looked through my 4.5 inch squares I didn't have many reds but I did find 30 orange ones 

I made 12 inch blocks.


This month's theme in my sewing room is "Strings, Selvages, Crumbs and Orphans" and I haven't even emptied the string box yet. But I have also been out playing in the gardens because we have been having some beautiful weather. 

And sew on...

  1. Wow! I can hardly believe you have a top already! Is there smoke coming out of your sewing machine, lol. I love what you did here. From the alphabet all the way to watermelon, everything is included. Great quilt. ;^)

  3. Great quilt! I use any color I want to use for log cabin centers. I'm glad you have nice weather to work outside in the yard/flowerbeds. You can sew when it rains, happy stitching!
