Welcome to finish it up Friday! Today I am THRILLED to share with you my completed log cabin quilt! I started this quilt back in May of 2016 and I'm delighted that it took me less than 2 years to complete it. Truth be told, most of the blocks were made earlier this year in a marathon quilt making session. It was a little intense. Hahaha! I made it a point to use some of my most precious fabrics in this quilt. I used a lot of fabrics from Denyse Schmidt, some from Heather Ross, Carolyn…

As I was sewing, I decided that each block must contain some hoarded or precious…

Hand Quilting a Vintage Log Cabin Quilt It's December, and everywhere I go I hear coughing. Deep, gripping coughing. There's a rotten cold going around our area, and I'm two and a half weeks into it. I did my duty of self-care, and canceled the monthly sewing group. I rested, t.v. binged, and quilted. Still, a dry cough just hangs on. This one is a doozy. Small Stitches in Perle Cotton No. 8 I imagine I am close to halfway through the quilting now. It hasn't been an exercise in perfection…
