How come the middle of the week rolls around much quicker than the weekend?
At least it is a chance to show off some designs featuring Log Cabin block variations!
In this series I have tried very hard to keep the designs in sequence … showing incremental changes as they happened, and not mixing them up for more variety.
Somehow the one above seems to be out of that sequence!
Obviously I didn’t like where I was heading and went back to the previous design and carried on!
This is one of the few series of Log Cabin designs where I have used an odd number of blocks, which means I have used Courthouse Steps in both the vertical and horizontal centre rows in every design to keep the designs symmetrical.
This is the last design in this series … not something I write very often … but will leave it active just in case I want to play some more one day. I am pretty sure I haven’t exhausted the possibilities!
More Log Cabin designs next week.

So apt, we’ve just had snow again on the official third day of spring! Love the colour palette, could we have a blue one, just for fun?

Rhona,
Just one blue and white one, or a series? I hate changing colours mid series as I finish up with far too many block variations to go through looking for the right block in the right colours!
Weather wise we have had a moderate start to autumn after a hot end to summer, though the summer as a whole came in fits and starts.

I really like the last two. Second last one reminds me of a wreath in a window and the white, well that is the snow that we seem to live with for most of the year! In green and white with red centers would definitely be a Christmas quilt!

Cindy,
At least some of the cool has moved south to end our summer … which has been stuttering for three months … a bit hot here, cool, then a bit more hot.
I had thought I might add a touch of green for Christmas! My favourite of this lot was the last one.

I love them all. With the odd number of blocks, you then have a “centre” if you want. Colour choice is different too, I like it.

Marie,
I like having a centre block, but really need to have Courthouse Steps blocks in the mix for it to work. In most of the Log cabin designs I have to use four blocks to make a centre of some sort.
