Less Logs for Christmas 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 from Virtual Quilter

Love the first design of the day.

Also love the second! I don’t think I will be able to select a favourite from todays selection of designs.

I have to admit to never making a Log Cabin quilt, but have been part of a group effort, and the lesson we learned is noted here, The Quarter-inch Seam for Work Groups.

Yet another great design … in my never really humble opinion.

I can’t stop loving these designs!

That is all for this weeks virtual Mid Week Log Cabin Retreat, but there will be another mid week, next week, when ...

Cabin Fever 111, 112, 113,114, 115 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting!

Not quite so interesting.

A slight change … but I prefer the first one of the three very similar designs so far.

Something totoally different to the first three … some space for quilting to shine.

Love the last one, but can see a few things I would like to change!

More Log Cabin designs in the middle of next week.

Logs on Point + 96, 97, 98, 99, 100 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting start to this weeks five minute Log Cabin Retreat.

Change four blocks and the design changes, and I like the change.

Big changes for the next design …

… change four blocks and I like it more.

It never ceases to amaze me how small changes can make a big difference to a design. That is why I love Electric Quilt.

I can change a design many, many times without damaging any fabric.

Last design for this week, and I like it just as it is … but there is still an urge to play.

That’s all for this week … more ...

Thick n Thin Logs 61, 62, 63, 64, 65 from Virtual Quilter

Middle of another week already, which means time for me to share some Log Cabin designs.

This week the designs use just one block in two colourings. The first one uses one colour variation, the second one uses the other variation.the only decision you have to make is whether you use the dark fabrics for the wide strips or the narrow strips.

I like the darker versions of the designs I have shared today, but maybe that is because it is a cold and wet day and the darker colour looks warm!

The one below is the opposite colouring ...

TNT Log Jam 101, 102, 103, 104, 105 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting start to this week’s mini break from the day to day routine, if only for the fact that it is a day late! It feels like life is starting to get back to a mad rush, but I am still enjoying the slower pace of life over the last few months.

If I was making the design above I would be very tempted to put some applique around the centre. It could also be space for the quilting to shine, but I think applique would work better.

Very dainty! Not something I would say about many Log Cabin ...

TNT Logs + 86, 87, 88, 89, 90 from Virtual Quilter

I like it!

Interesting.

A little change, and I like it.

Another little change, and I like it more.

Yet another little change, and I love it!

It is always interesting to see the designs in a group photo when there are minor changes between them. Now I can see them all at once I have changed my mind … if I had to choose one to make I would choose the one on the left in the bottom row, not the last one. Or maybe the first one!

More Log Cabin designs mid week, next week!

Logs on the Pile 66, 67, 68, 69, 70 from Virtual Quilter

Middle of the week, and a collection of Log Cabin quilt designs to look at during a short break from the rest of the world.

I like the first one, not so keen on the second, but thought it was too interesting to hit the delete button.

The middle design for the mid week post … and the least I could say about it is wow! that is interesting.

Back to an almost boring design by comparison to the one in the middle, but I like it, and love the waving line created by Curved Log Cabin blocks.

The last is ...
