One day I was wearing my favorite apron, when I realized that if I didn't make something else out of this cute fabric, my world would be lost.
so I went on a hunt . . .
And found a couple jelly rolls.
I had a scrappy log cabin in mind . . .
I'm a little too OCD for true scrappiness . . . I have to have SOME order. . .
I wanted some chunky lines
This is where this quilt got bottle-necked for a few months . . . on the dining room table, waiting for the chunky lines.
Someone in our house just turned 59 and four quarters !! (can't say that other number :)
quilt stats:
76 x 84 (washed) - made to fit a twin bed
top - log cabin with 2 1/2 inch strips
blocks - 10 "
fabric - "road 15" by sweetwater, and a few others thrown in
back - scraps for the blocks and "ink" by Zen Chic (gray and black)
quilting - fmq random spirals
chunky stitching - No. 8 in white
batting is 80/20 comfort by Winline

What a great quilt! I love that you combined chunky and free motion stitching. The fabric line is fab, too :)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to the person who just turned 59 and 4 quarters! They were the recipient of one AWESOME quilt!!
ReplyDeleteWay to go, girl! This is a great use of those jellies!
ReplyDeleteWow
ReplyDeleteLog cabin was a great way to show off these fabrics. Your bovine related comments cracked me up. I live in a town where many people would not find that amusing, but when you grow up around farms and ranches you know where your food comes from.
