I am so glad I decided to add some blocks to it to make it throw size, instead of baby size. I love the way it came out, and it is nice to have a new quilt to cuddle under now that it is finally cooling off!
I used cool colored squares for the centers of each block, and cut 2.5" strips for the logs. I used some quiet prints from my stash, purchased some, and participated in a swap to receive others.
I backed it in one of my favorite prints (an old American Jane alphabet print) with a column of green and blue solids in the center. I quilted around the squares of the log cabin, and bound it with a favorite multi-colored print.
Stats: 58"x70"
Machine pieced and machine quilted by me

The low volume really works great with the coloured centres. Lovely quilt :)
ReplyDeleteI love the subtlety of your quilt.
