Make lots of identical Log Cabin blocks and arrange them as desired!
Then turn them all 180 degrees to turn the design inside out. Makes quite a difference!
Make a few modifications to the first design.
Looks totally different!
In the final design the blocks as laid out in the design above were turned 90 degrees.
Any collection of identical Log Cabin blocks can be arranged in dozens of different ways in 4 x 4, 6 x 6, 8 x 8, 10 x 10 or 12 x 12. A row or two removed from each side of the layouts creates a rectangular quilt.
Being able to do all the twisting and turning virtually saves lots of time and wear and tear on your back, which is why I spend so much time playing with designs in the Electric Quilt program.
However, I still make mistakes, but there is no unpicking involved!
More Log Cabin designs mid week, next week.
