WiPs Wednesday - big scrappy log cabin.




I made this top about a year ago, but after a little mishap quilting a smaller quilt and a few folds in the back,  I decided to unpick it into quarters and quilt it that way instead. It's 84" square or just over 6 foot square. The logs are 2" wide.

It is the biggest quilt to date. Only one more quarter to make the back for and quilt, then the sashing and binding,  but as you may notice I'm running out of space to lay it out... another good reason to quilt in quarters I think!


I'm quilting it with loops and even though I like loops, I really don't like quilting the loops, but then quilting is not one of my favourite things to do, I much prefer picking the fabrics and piecing.

I've realised in the picture that the bottom corner should be on the other side as it's not in the right format, but as it's not attached yet, that will be easily fixed - by moving my furniture out of the way :o), no I think a visit to my neighbours house with her much larger floor space is needed.





My next work in progress is going to be some cushion covers that hopefully, fingers crossed, will be sold at a craft fair. These are some of the flowers I've cut out so far, they're Kaffe fasset fabrics, which I think are perfect for them.
