The Log Cabin quilt is a favorite pattern of many quilters. So many different looking quilts can come from using the base block. These two were my first log cabin quilts, christmas gifts for two twin sisters in my extended family. I wanted to give them a bit of pizzazz so I made the strips different widths and kept sewing until each block was larger than the desired block size. Making them different widths also helped in hiding imperfections that were still abundant. Most of my quilts are scrappy like these two; I love the added dimension it gives to each quilt.
