We were away from home for a long weekend, so instead of the sewing machine, this was my view!
Before we left, I did have a chance to sew the center blocks of my Little House log cabin sampler quilt top together. I adjusted the final layout to try and mix up the brown, orange, and turquoise strips evenly throughout the top. I think this will work!
Measures about 48.5 inches square right now.
My next step is to work on the border. Melva has directions for the borders she did in her post here. I haven't decided on what I will do yet, but I did spend some time sorting through the fabric that was left from making these blocks. The center blocks were often cut from fat quarters or scraps out of my stash, so that's all put away. There are a lot of jelly roll strips left - more than I expected! I'll use some of them for binding this quilt, but then what? Maybe some fall placemats? Fun to think about!
The plan for this coming week is to work on the borders.
