This log cabin quilt was one of those quilts. I started making it on a whim, made a million blocks, pieced the top, the top was like a California King Sized quilt, it sat and sat for years in a bin, never getting finished. I started this quilt in 2007, here is the post! I love blogging, it's like a diary.
When I was visiting my Aunt Karen in Wyoming in 2010, I asked her what colors she'd like in a quilt. She said blue and yellow. Guess what quilt popped into my head? This lovely log cabin top I've had hidden away for years.
I finally took two entire rows off of it, to make it more suitable for a queen size bed. My friend Charissa quilted it for me. I then packed it up and took it to Wyoming with me this summer. My Aunt was thrilled!
I was thrilled to have it out of a bin and being loved. 5 years later...


How gorgeous is that Heather...it is stunning, my favorite colors, my favorite quilt block.Yay for your Aunt!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Don't you love when things like that just work out? I bet 2 rows would be enough to make a baby quilt, unless you used them on the back.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty quilt and one that will be treasured as well!
