Hi everyone! It’s time to talk about sewing my turquoise and grey log cabin quilt! As of the publishing of this post, I have already finished the top of the quilt and is now waiting to be quilted. Yet, I haven’t talked about sewing it here on this blog. I decided to hold off talking about it until I finished the top. I didn’t know how long it would take to make the quilt, which is also why I decided to hold off talking about it.
I already talked about making a log cabin quilt out of turquoise and grey fabric in a previous post. You can read it here.
I decided to use the Log Cabin Quilt pattern from Scrapish.com. I liked it because it used less colors than the other log cabin quilt pattern I used for my Pink and Green quilt. It was also free!
The pattern calls for cutting the strips of fabric into 2 1/2 inch wide strips. Once I was finished cutting them, they looked like this…
I really love the way the colors of this quilt look together!
After I admired the way the colors looked together (And took some time off to work on other things) I cut the center fabric into it’s 2 1/2 inch by 2 1/2 inch square shape. After that, I began to sew the strips together the way the pattern calls for.
After some work, the block began to take shape…
Even though this happened months ago, I am still very happy with the colors of this quilt and how well everything came together. The blocks came together faster than I thought they would be, so there isn’t much to talk about when it comes to assembling the blocks.
That’s all for now! Thank you for reading!
