I recently purchased Creative Grids 6 inch Log Cabin trimming ruler, wondering if it would tidy-up small log cabins blocks, and help avoid the stretching narrow logs out of shape. I wanted to clean up left-over strips in a tote and decided to make a small Log Cabin Quilt. I
pulled the blues and turquoises, and the lights, then found a RED in the
fabric drawer. That turquoise just glared back at me,
just DARING me to use it, but .....it MIGHT work. Yes, that ruler DID tidy up the logs. These logs finish at 3/4 inch, the block finishes at 6 inch.
I had faith .....
Not bad! This might be my new Best Favorite!!! I call it "Something from Nothing." It finishes up at 53" x 59".
Today I am piecing batting bits together, and then will piece backing bits. Frugal!!! - See Mom, I eventually did learn from you and Grandma! The entire amount spent will be $0.00.
