While we were retreating we decided to make a quilt called Lone Cabin. It is in an old book Red Wagon Originals- HERE You can get it for a few bucks but be prepared to work with older and primitive patterns.
Below is how my cabin went together.

I made mine first and suggested to the others to cut the strips a tad wider.

The directions say to applique that vertical strip.
My log cabin needs a real contractor! hahaha
I unsewed below the door and sewed the bottom in.
Complete! Definitely prim!
Christy's cabin
Carrie's cabin
I made a quick trip to Tacoma area and although I got stuck in rush hour traffic, I got to enjoy this amazing sunset!
Game day brought fam to the house. Elsa is a big lover of kids! She was happy to play with them.
What a Super Bowl game! I was rooting for the 49ers, but OT in a Superbowl is something else!
Let's have a great week!
What a great log cabin--I was able to snag a Red Wagon book on Amazon--I love that pattern--so prim...
ReplyDeleteSuch cute kiddos--;))) I see Elsa is "guarding" them ;))) Dog and kids--what could be better...
Hugs, Julierose
What a great Humble Cabin. Made with lots of sweetness. Loved seeing the others too. Looks like my kind of neighborhood! What a good dog Elsa is -- watching over the kids. Precious.

ReplyDeleteLove your Log Cabin! I know I have that book and will have to get it out and look over the pattern and probably add it to my long list of quilts I would like to make!
ReplyDeleteYAY!
DeleteIt is a snowy day in PA. I just pulled all my old Red Wagon pattern books to enjoy with hot tea after I finish shoveling. The log cabin is great, primitive improv at it's best.
ReplyDeletePerfect snowy day project!
DeleteThis post motivated me to pull out my Red Wagon book to make a cabin as well. Finally found it today so plan on making it sometime this week. As I reacquaint myself with this book, I will say that quilt book instructions have come a long way in 30+ years....
ReplyDeleteRight? Even the primitive ones have improved!
DeleteOh, I love this block! I knew I'd been saving plaids, homespuns and checks for a reason! Ordered the book on Amazon :) Thanks! Barbara S.
