What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Interesting start for this weeks collection of Log Cabin quilt designs.

Very different, but still interesting!

Rather stunning … would be interesting to swap colours around in this one! Log Cabin quilts are not usually a great showcase for quilting, but that light centre could be turned into something pretty special.

The one above is very interesting, but a bit dark for me.

The last Log Cabin variation for this week would make a nice quilt, or a nice mat for the floor.

That is all for this week, but there will be more Log Cabin designs mid week, next week.

Love the first design this week.

There are four colourways of the TNT Log Cabin block in this project file, and there are over 500 quilt designs. I suspect that there are some repeats, but I have not been able to find any.

Interesting!

I like the one above.

I can see five spaces which could be filled with some interesting quilting, or some applique could be added before the quilting.

That is all for this weeks Log Cabin retreat, but there will be more Log Cabin designs mid week, next week.

As usual on Wednesdays I share more quilt designs than other days of the week so you can have a longer coffee break sometime during the day. This week while you have your very short retreat from the mad, mad world, I am in the middle of a Monday to Friday retreat with quilters , and maybe even doing a few stitches occasionally.

Not a lot of variety in the blocks used in the first two designs, but two very different results.

Another different but interesting design!

Different again … though I think I might be repeating myself.

My favourite in this ...

I have the urge every so often to play with Log Cabin blocks. This project has been around for a long time, with a LOT of quilt designs in it, but a large proportion of them have Thick and Thin blocks almost exclusively.

I have to admit that most of the designs are interesting, with some with the WOW factor, but the intention was to mix up all the variations of Log Cabin blocks.

The one above is rather nice, even if it is all just three colourways of the one block.

The next one couldbe quilted with lots of ...

Middle of the week and there are five Log Cabin designs for you to study over a coffee break.

I like the first one.

All the blocks are Curved Log Cabin blocks, also known as Thick and Thin Log Cabin, some with light one side and dark the other, others are all either light or dark.

I like the one above too …

… but the last one is my pick of the day.

More Log Cabin designs next week … mid week.

A short retreat this mid week … I am up early to go to a quilt group meeting 2.5 hours away!

Love the second design … and I hope you all have an enjoyable day while I am away enjoying myself!

Interesting.

Very interesting.

It is going to be hard for me to pick a favourite today … maybe the one above.

Another interesting one!

How about seeing them all together.

I think I will settle for the first one as my favourite for the day, but might have to have several mini retreats during the day to confirm that decision. I might also play with the designs to see what happens when I turn the blocks inside out. I might still be playing until next weeks mid week retreat!
