4th Quilt - Autumn Log Cabin
This is the first log cabin quilt I've made. And I have to say, I did enjoy working on it BUT, log cabin quilts get kind of monotonous, the bigger they are. This one is just a little smaller than a twin size but still big enough to be repetetive. I couldn't imagine doing one any bigger unless I gave myself way more time to work on it. This one took a couple of weeks in total and it's 35 squares. It has vibrant fall colours and is a great addition to my fall decorations and home decor. It was fun but I'm not sure how soon I'll do another log cabin. Thanks for the great tips on the binding mom, it turned out really good!

You are SO good at this! I love this one...beautiful colors. It didn't take you that long either! Impressive!
Mandy,
The quilt looks amazing. It was great to see you at church yesterday. You are an inspiration to me.
Great suggestions and examples, especially for a newbie like myself who lacks a natural sense of web design.
That is a beautiful arbor! Wow, your hubby is a darling for building it. My own hubby cleaned up my whole potting bench and area yesterday so I'm not complaining, still, I wish I had an arbor like that!

I love the pattern you used for this log cabin quilt and I agree that it is better if you stick with smaller pieces. You can enhance the decorations by mixing warm and light colors. This is an amazing project and I am sure you will manage to create more beautiful fall decorations.
