From under the table in the "to do someday" box I found these four log cabins from four fat quarters (dark, light and 2 mediums) made in a Marti Michell workshop using her rulers. I thought it was strange to have special rulers for log cabins but in fact they made the cutting and sewing very orderly and very logical.
Stack of folded fabric: the "weight" helps to hold the ruler firmly in place. |
Strips ready to add to the units I've started |
I folded and layered two more sets of 4 FQs and laid out the resulting strips in size order including a bright pink in all the blocks.
Last night I arranged them on the spare room floor in an odd arrangement but having done a few conventional log cabins in the past I wanted a change.
Photo does not do justice to the vibrancy of the prints |
I've located some Fassett yardage with which to border it probably with an intervening woven stripe.
