Here goes nothing! Over at
Ellison Lane Quilts, Jennifer issued a challenge for us to use up those scrap bits by making monochromatic log cabin blocks. I haven't made many log cabins, but the idea of random piecing really appealed to me, so I jumped in. Last night I made my first 3 blocks and I think I'm hooked.
Other works in progress include hexagon #38
Nearly finished a baby quilt
On Monday we had Thanksgiving dinner. This is before the demolition...
Technically the turkey is still a work in progress : )

Freshly Pieced for W.I.P. Wednesday.
With the green tape, your orange scrap block looks like a pumpkin. Cute blocks.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say exactly what Cheryl said! They look like a colourful row of pumpkins. :) But seriously, they're adorable. I wish I had enough scraps of various colours to do something like that too.
ReplyDeleteI thought they were pot holders! cute
ReplyDeleteOh, I like your scrappy log cabin blocks. That's a great idea for doing something beautiful with scraps. I like your hexagon. I've fallen in love with all the unusual hexagons in the hexathon. Thanks for helping me hook-up with hexathons!
ReplyDeleteHi Carla! Beautiful and I'm sure you got hooked with those blocks! Your colours and fabrics are so beautiful! x Teje
ReplyDeleteCarla your monochromatic log cabins are really lovely. How many are you going to make of them, enough for a quilt?
