Log Cabin Baby Quilt for a Girl


Kathy in Nashville has made this pretty little quilt for a baby using the Inklingo .50" Log Cabin collection.

She writes:

"These 2 photos are of the girl baby quilt made with the .50" log cabin. I used scraps from my owl quilts. Hand pieced and machine quilted."


What a great back - with more owl fabrics.

Not only is the front full of great fabrics - so is the back!

Miniature Feathered Star

Nancy in Alabama made this beauty.
She writes :

A couple of weeks ago I took a wonderful class taught by Marsha McCloskey sponsored by my quilt guild.  During the class we learned how to draft a feathered star.  I kept thinking I wanted to do a miniature version.  When the class ended I drafted a half inch feathered star.  

I found appropriate shapes in the 0.5" Log Cabin, 9" Storm at Sea, 6.75" Storm at Sea, and HST 00B collections.  Using Inklingo made piecing the little star easy and gave me the accuracy I needed.  The little quilt is 11.5" square.

Sherman's March


Charlsey made this beautiful quilt designed by Bonnie Blue Quilts using squares, rectangles and HSTs printed with Inklingo.
She writes:

"The pieces are flying geese, "rooftops", rectangles and squares.  The pattern is Inklingo friendly. I used Inklingo for most of the quilt."

Red and White Houses

Jeannette from Australia is making houses.
She writes :
I'm sending a picture of some of the Little Red School House blocks that I have made into 10" blocks using 1"x10" logs from the Log Cabin Collection.
I printed 2 logs for each house block. One log separates the roof from the walls, the other log is cut as follows:
3.5" to separate the side wall from the front of the house and the rest of the log needs to be reduced to 1.25" wide by cutting on the dotted line on 1 side only otherwise when sewn between the gable and the rest of the roof on the angle it is too wide.
After sewing in place I trimmed it to size. The sky piece is cut 2.5"x10.5". I used 2 chimneys on the roof and the sizes for the sky pieces in between are 1 each as follows; 2.5" x 2.75", 2.5" x 3.5", 2.5" x 3.75".
I have pieced them using my machine and I have made 21 houses so far for a Quilt pattern on the cover of the Australian Patchwork and Quilting Magazine volume 8 number 7.
The blocks in the book are 12".
I am very happy with the way they are turning out and I thought may be someone else might be interested in this size as well.

Regards Jeannette Down Under.

Red and White Log Cabin


Nancy in Alabama finished another project.
She writes :
I finished another small red and cream wall-hanging using Inklingo.
The little off set logs quilt is 22" square and uses 0.5" logs from the Log Cabin collection.

Yin, Yang and Log Cabins

Mary has been having a ball with the Yin Yang collection, and some Log Cabin blocks.
She writes :

For the log cabin blocks, I used 1.5” cut logs which I had already precut several years ago when I cut different sizes of “all” my Orientals.

Quilt is 66”x 75”

Now, Mary, you might have used strips you had already, but just so the readers of this blog knows : You can make the same kind of Log Cabin blocks using the 1" Log Cabin collection.
And I think it is a gorgeous quilt !
