Gwennie Inspired Medallion QAL Part 3

Here we are again! I get so excited to see all the lovely version. Whoop! Whoop! Please add the link to your blog post or send me a photo and I'll post it.

Last month Cathy's theme was log cabin- any variety or version, including the name of a log cabin setting, which was the direction I went.

I knew right away I wanted to make a Streak of Lightning "log cabin setting" for my border. What I didn't realize is that I was going to run out of fabric and time...

I knew I wanted to bring out the turquoise from the center basket. I still want to add the bold solid somewhere before the quilt is done. I tried the zig zag on the top and bottom, the top and each side, the bottom and each side and thought it just looked all unbalanced, so went with the two sides.

I put it together by making flying geese.

Here is Pierrette's medallion so far. She opted to make many fun versions and variations of the log cabin block to surround her center. Love the addition of the yellow. 

Here is Karen Dever's fun medallion surrounded by liberated log cabins. Love that red corner fabric!!

Here is Sally M's quilt with the addition of log cabins. She is hoping to add a little something from a future round in the large corners. I think it's a great idea!

Here is Vicki B's medallion. The latest log cabin brings in all the color she has used so far. Wonderful!

This is Ursala's creative interpretation!! 

I chose to turn it into one giant log cabin block. I used slashes to make it flat and square since I am really "free flowing" in my piecing...letting the piece just happen. 

You ready for the next round? Katy says this:

"So the challenge for this next round, is to create a border with the star theme. You could make your entire medallion into a star center or add stars in your borders. Heck, you could use star fabric! We will be linking up the results of this round here on September 1st."

On your marks, get set, sew!
