      These log cabin blocks are so versatile - I thought of a few more combos after I’d already finished filming. It’ll be hard to decide what pattern to go for when I start piecing the quilt top. Spoilt for pattern options..! 🫣

    I love scrappy, wonky log cabins. I like to leave the non-90-degree angles of my scrap strips to add that lively element to the piecing. All our training as quilters is to be so precise about angles (and everything else) but I do enjoy wonkiness in my quilts. Wonderful tutorial. I love your log cabin blocks.

    • @bluebellhillcrafts
      @bluebellhillcrafts  7 місяців тому

      I completely relate to what you said about the training- it’s so true! I spent weeks on getting flying geese points on a quilt to match perfectly and it nearly drove me up the wall lol.. I do love that kind of neat perfection where it makes sense, but you can’t beat a bit of wonky free styling as an antidote! It’s sooooo liberating and uplifting!
      I think we’re kindred wonky spirits 🤭🪡🧵

    I learnt how to do the log cabins with the dark/light pattern, I’m sure you know what it is. But I really like the way you did them with random colours. It looks really beautiful. I’m thinking of making a bag or a pouch and join the blocks with crochet… well, you know I like to do crazy things 😂💚🩷🧡❤️🩵💛🤎🤍💜💙

    • @bluebellhillcrafts
      @bluebellhillcrafts  7 місяців тому +1

      Half light / half dark is another classic version of the log cabin block, I’ve seen some pictures by different quilters of it and it’s amazing how diverse it can look, depending on fabric choices!
      You always come up with the most amazing ideas!!! ❤️❤️❤️
      I love the mixing of the fabrics with crochet sashing (sashing is the term for the bit in between the blocks, usually fabric in a single colour or pattern for the whole quilt top). I’ll be very interested to see how that works if you decide to give it a try! 🥰🙋‍♀️🪡🧵❤️

    The pattern goes back more than two hundred years , if you look up egyptian cat mummies, they are often wrapped in a log cabin pattern

      I’ve been collecting fabrics for many years and am very lucky that sewing friends occasionally pass their scraps on to me, too!
      Some of my favourite fabric brands are Freespirit Fabrics, Dashwood, Moda, Cloud 9 and PBS Fabrics. I’m sure there’s many more in my stash, but these spring to mind.
