Log Cabin Variation

I got the flannel quilt top completed on Sunday. I thought I'd show you how I assembled my quilt top.


I started by sewing together four 3x3 sections


 Then I sewed 2x3's and sewed them together. (yes there is a little error) I keep my EQ drawing handy as well.
 Then I sewed two of the 3x3 sections together and did that for the other side. Then added the 2x6 block section to the bottom. I very rarely ever sew a whole row of blocks together, then another row, and another.
 Ta-da!
I need to do a little piecemeal for the backing and binding. I'll spray baste when I am ready to machine quilt it.

I found out my mission team will be going to Trujilla, Peru next fall! I'm planning on going!!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

    I had intentions of making something similar to the quilt you are making but never found time to actually do it. A simple design and something I think would be good in plaids for a man to cover up with in his favorite recliner.

    Lovely top Lori,
    can imagine how cuddly it will be with all the flannel.
    Greetings,

    Great quilt! It will be very cuddly! I also sew quilts together that way. Somehow, it seems easier than sewing long rows together, doesn't it?

    I am always impressed with the eye appeal of simple, graphic designs. The fact that this is flannel ups its cozy factor, too. : )

    I love this!!!! It's been on my list for a long time! I've been wanting to do it in bright dupioni silks. Finished one in green and blue batiks for grandson. Close to looking like turtles. Flannels would be magic! Congrats on going to Peru!!! Steph
