Don't be afraid to experiment - you never know what will develop, or what you might learn, or how it will turn out. What's the worst that can happen? I KNOW you have fabric! You might end up with an interesting throw for your pet. 8-))) Hey, it's still comfy, and fun to remember the fabrics.
While it's kinda ... uhhhh unique, I DID enjoy the process, and even now, wrap up in it, or throw it on hard lawn chairs to soften the seat. I still like it - the photo makes it look like a tile collage.
One of THESE blocks is NOT like the other, DRAT! I did exactly what I would caution other quilters, "be careful which direction you tilt your cutaway template." 
...back to the drawing board ...
okay I will be the first to comment that I had to stare a while before seeing the block cut wrong. but it did take a while. but love them anyway. and I also really like the wonky log cabins. I took a class with Jan Mullen when she was in the US from Australia on her wonky method of cutting and piecing and loved it. so fun not to have any rules to adhere to! carol
ReplyDeleteI like your wonky log cabin. I love to experiment and have ceased being surprised when someone publishes the same as a technique!
ReplyDeleteExperimenting is where it's at in my books. Love your log cabin.
ReplyDeleteElaine, please, you must promise to never use the word "dorky" again... it is simply no way to describe any of your quilts... even the ones that wind up crooked are charming!
ReplyDeleteUse that off block for the label. Like you planned it that way...!
I think it's VERY cool!!! Love the border, too!!

Fun quilts Elaine- I love the sew and flip one. I own the Valori wells book and love the quilts in it- Perhaps one day.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your work- it looks terrific- dorky or not - and I would say not Dorky....
Regards,
Anna
It too took me a while to figure out your "error"? I think it fits in well and it adds character :) I like them!
ReplyDeleteLove the crazy block .... you have inspired me once again .... I've been digging through my scrap bins and have now started a new quilt!
ReplyDeleteLove everything you do!
Oh, I love this one too!!
ReplyDeleteLove your Flip Crazy Log Cabin. You can throw it in my lawn chair anytime.
