This one really appeals to me. And I agree about the liberating comment - I mentioned to Cathy L a few days ago that I honestly prefer the "controlled chaos" approach to being totally organized (as in following a specific pattern layout).
Your quilt is looking lovely but I’ve gotta tell you — your title spooked me because I was listening to the Agatha Christie mystery “And Then There Were None” recently. Like there were 15 quilters at the bee but then 3 turned up dead, and then there were 12…. ;-). Very relieved that’s not the case! Hah! Maybe I should switch to listening to smutty romance novels while I’m quilting, since my imagination gets away with me!
So fun! I mean, this is the kind of sewing/piecing that many of us love. Just sit at the machine, choose scrap fabrics at random, and think about something else. I love it! Hope you've been enjoying a good audiobook while sewing.
So lovely Linda, what size are the strips you are using?
ReplyDeleteYes, and sewing like that you end up with a fascinating block each time...very pretty all together hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteYou know, I've never made a log cabin because I knew I wouldn 't have the patience for the light/dark thing. But this works! And I have the scraps!

ReplyDeleteYes, these are wonderful looking without the obvious dark and light sides! Love seeing Log Cabin blocks looking this good! Excellent colors!:)

ReplyDeleteYou have been having fun, while I'm just sitting here reading face book, and quilt blogs! I need to break this habit!
