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 : )
linking up with Lee at Freshly Pieced for W.I.P. Wednesday.

With the green tape, your orange scrap block looks like a pumpkin. Cute blocks.
I 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.
I thought they were pot holders! cute
Oh, 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!
Hi Carla! Beautiful and I'm sure you got hooked with those blocks! Your colours and fabrics are so beautiful! x Teje
Carla your monochromatic log cabins are really lovely. How many are you going to make of them, enough for a quilt?
Love your hexie too.
LOVE. THAT. BABY. QUILT. I can't wait to see it come together! And your improv blocks are awesome too. Thanks for sharing!
cheers

Your scrappy blocks are amazing! You've done a great job choosing colors and your hexie is so sweet!
Ok just so we are clear: your ability to get a gagillion things done in a short amount of time makes me look like I am standing still! How do you fit in the laundry, work, groceries and all the rest of it? P.S.: Love your log cabins!
Your scrappy log cabin blocks are gorgeous! What a great way to use up scraps - They will look wonderful finally pieced together :)
Log cabins are so addictive! They look fantastic :o)
I am thinking the same thing, how do you stay so productive?????
The log cabins are sweet! I was thinking about trying it also but I have way too many projects in the works. So I just pined it for a future project.
Your scraps are so cute! Nice job!
Good luck finishing the turkey. :-)
