This is one of my favorite quilts. I made it while teaching log cabin quilt classes for our local community college. I know it wasn't made before 1992 because it has some of the commemorative Christopher Columbus stripe fabric in the border. I think it was probably finished by 1993 however. It is twin size and is often on a twin bed in my sunshine yellow guest bedroom. I had already made at least a dozen log cabin quilts previously so I had tried most of the traditional layouts. One thing about log cabin though, if you have made one, you probably will want to make another, with the variety of layouts you can use.
Here are 2 more pictures of the leftovers from the color study.
These are the leftover ends of strips from cutting the squares and the triangles so I could continue on and make more blocks. My only problem is that I would want to add more new fabrics, not continue with the old ones.
