Mountain Peaks Baby Quilt in Fire! from Busy Hands Quilts

Today I'm sharing a Mountain Peaks Baby quilt in the Fire version! A fellow quilter challenged me to think about out-of-the-box color schemes when she sent me her Fire version of Waterfall II, and I've been looking for quilt patterns to make in the Fire version every since then. Click here to read about her quilt.

The Mountain Peaks quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

This was a fun, quick quilt to make! After cutting out all of the fabrics, I laid out the block with each piece in its place, which was really ...

Weekly update: it's a flimsy + a new start from With Strings Attached

After last week's storms it's easy to see why the French explorers called the river "eau pleine," or "water-full." Eau pleine became Des Plaines (a river and a city) and O'Plaine (a road).

I ignored the sign and walked through the puddle on my heels.

That was Saturday's walk at the Des Plaines River Canoe Launch. Sunday was closer to home at Sand Pond.

National Log Cabin Day from Moda Lissa

We as quilters like to celebrate any holiday that relates to our hobbies. Today is just one of those days. While National Log Cabin Day is to commemorate the wooden kind of Log Cabins. I am celebrating Fabric Log Cabins by sharing some of my favorite log cabins and some interesting historical facts.

I love this log Cabin that is on the cover of American Patchwork and Quilting. Made by Sherri McConnell.

Time for another Quiltalong from Moda Lissa

Quilt-Alongs

One of the good things that came from Covid is the Quiltalong which kept us busy once we had finished making masks. We could hop online and join like minded quilters quilting along and sharing our project online. Recently some of the customers at the Old Craft Store joined me in an IN PERSON QUILTALONG. It was fun and of course we had them parade their quilt tops out along the downtown square.

BROWNIE POINTS from Q-BITS

To me, the equivalent in quilting to comfort food is the log cabin block in all of its variations. I needed that comfort, so here is another variation of a quarter log cabin. I've chosen 1/2-inch logs for a 4-inch block in browns and pinks. In the interest of frugality, the border is composed of 15 strips of leftover pink scraps.

THE STATS: Brownie Points, 2024, 26"X26", Paper pieced, Machine pieced, Machine quilted. Number nerd reports 484 pieces in the top.

The best view of this quilt is up close looking at all of the different fabrics ...

Log Cabin 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 from Virtual Quilter

I like the first Log Cabin design this week, simple by eye catching.

The second one has a star in the middle too, but different to the first one.

The third is rather neat and tidy, and I like it a lot.

Turning four blocks around makes a big difference. I like it better than the last one.

Seeing a star again to finish today’s selection of Log Cabin quilt designs.

All of the designs in this project file can be made with the same blocks … with identical fabrics in all, or well sorted scraps, and just keep playing ...

Island Batik Log Cabin Challenge and Blog Hop from Sew Preeti Quilts

Me: Have you heard of Door Dash?
Paul: Yes.
Me: Now meet Dashing Doors!

Dashing Doors

Dashing Doors is my response to the Island Batik's Log Cabin Challenge and Blog Hop that begins today. My pun on Door Dash got a huge eye roll from Paul :-)

I received a half-yard bundle of Breezy Collection. Purples, Greens, Coral and Pink make this a lovely collection.

Log Cabins and More from Humble Quilts

While we were retreating we decided to make a quilt called Lone Cabin. It is in an old book Red Wagon Originals- HERE You can get it for a few bucks but be prepared to work with older and primitive patterns.

Below is how my cabin went together.

I made mine first and suggested to the others to cut the strips a tad wider.

The directions say to applique that vertical strip.

My log cabin needs a real contractor! hahaha

I unsewed below the door and sewed the bottom in.

Complete! Definitely prim!

Still hand stitching....................... from Exuberant Color

Not a lot of time was spent on the hand stitching yesterday but I do have one long side and half of a short side stitched. I may take a break from it this morning and trim the second quilt and choose a binding for it.

The red double Amaryllis has one open flower now. There are only going to be three blooms on this one.

There is hope for more blooms though because there are more bud stalks on this bulb. The third one is still pretty short but they grow pretty fast.

My internet provider sent me a ...

Trimming............. from Exuberant Color

I got 2 quilts back from my longarm quilter and they are 2 favorite quilts. I got this one trimmed so it is ready for me to choose binding. It is all batik fabric so it will be a batik binding and will be hand finished.

There are lots of colors in this quilt so almost any binding color will work.

The back is a batik too. I think I will look for a medium value for the binding since there is a light end and a dark end to the layout of the blocks.

I finished pressing another huge ...

Log Cabins are rolling ..... from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

..... along! Time to get this project to the assembly mode .... which is exactly what happened! This is now a top. Backing has been selected. Another top to go to the LAer. Whew .... I'm so glad this is now off my UFO list and I'm so loving this top now! Have to confess, but I hated this project and was so ready to dump it way back when. Good thing I didn't listen to that voice!

Update on September UFO's from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

Well, well, well ..... I had good progress working on these two UFO's last month. They are not finished tops just yet, but they have been moved along from just a few blocks.

My log cabin turned out amazing! I'm just in love with this project now. All the blocks have their applique. The chevrons have been trimmed on the sides. Just need to figure out the length and then trim. The fabric for the border and beside each chevron has been decided upon. Yes, time to get this beauty sewn together now! Amazing what happens when I concentrate ...

Those logs keep rolling along .... from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

This is where I'm at with my Log Cabin project. Lots and lots of strips being sub-cut and sewn to make the chevron borders. Did I mention lots of strips. The chevron (in the middle of the photo) has strips being auditioned for me to see if I like the progression of colours. The block on the bottom right has all the applique sewn down. The other blocks in this row have been removed and the circles have been appliqued on. The leaves will be sewn onto the blocks as a take-along project.

I've decided to make all ...

Ugh .... log cabin blocks! from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

Progress has been made on getting this UFO going ..... but not without some problems. Jack the Ripper had to come out and help me a number of times until I finally got the hang of sewing strips on in the right places. Because this is an old UFO, my seam allowance had to be adjusted a few times ..... until finally, blocks were being made. Then, being a tad smug because I thought I got a good rhythm going ..... oops ..... two blocks had to be fixed because one strip of fabric was sewn on wrong .... not once, but twice. I sewed ...

Scrapy Log Cabin Babyquilt from Quiltmanufaktur

Ich sage nie 'Nein', wenn ich einen Auftrag für einen Babyquilt bekomme! Und schon gar nicht, wenn mir lediglich die Farbe vorgegeben wird... Schwer zu erraten, um welches Geschlecht es sich handlen wird, oder?

Meine Tochter und ihr Freund haben den Wunsch nach einen Babyquilt für eine Bekannte gehabt. Neben der Farbe war noch die Größe ein Punkt. Er soll nicht größer als 1 x1 m sein - machbar! Ach, und er sollte nicht allzu kindlich aussehen. Um das Ganze noch etwas konkreter zu gestalten, habe ich ihnen einige Quilts gezeigt, die auch in so klein durchaus hübsch aussehen können. Wobei ...
