Here is the finished Red & White Log Cabin Quilt made from blocks that have been pieced by fellow Bee Imaginative block swappers. It is the combined effort of some amazing people; clever quilters as well as bloggers.
Block Details (all measurements include seam allowances):
- Center Square (white): 3.5 inches x 3.5 inches
- Log strips: 2.5 inches wide
- Sashing (white): 2.5 inches wide
- Blocks: 15.5 inches x 15.5 inches ~ make 12 (+ extra blocks for the back)
And ... I've used a few of the extra blocks on the back of the quilt. A quilt back pieced with solid color fabric always makes a feature of all of those intersecting quilting lines. There's just nowhere to hide those lines. It is a busy quilting grid although I don't think that I've over quilted it.
Kei Honeycomb fabric in Black used for binding is becoming a bit of a standard, and easy go to option, at the end of a project. It does frame a red/white combination quilt rather nicely.
I couldn't possibly sell this quilt; it is definitely one that I want to keep and treasure.
