Blocks Log Cabin

The Log Cabine quilt is an all-time favorite.

 If there's anything you want to have in your quilting skill set, it's a knowledge of log cabin quilt designs.

The block consists of light and dark fabrics, which are sewn to a central square working outwards.
Traditionally, the central square is red and represents the chimney of the log cabin and the surrounding strips are rows of logs. After mastering this basic technique, you can use different colors in strategic parts of your quilts.Three factors will affect the finished size of the block: the dimensions of the centre square, the width of the strips and how many rounds of strips are used. Plan the design on the graph paper to determine measurements.  Leave  0,75 cm (1"/4") seam allowance each strip of all countries for joining together.

Pachwork cushions

Here you can see some of my cushions. I have made them in the last few years and most of them I have given to friends.

This is my first cushion. When I made it, I didn’t know what “patchwork” was. I wanted to make а handmade present for a wedding anniversary. I knew that the couple loved cats. I decided to make a motif of an open window with two cats seating on the window cill looking at the garden. It wasn’t the easiest task to make the cushion, because I didn’t follow a specific patchwork technique, but the result at the end wasn’t bad I think.

Children’s quilt cover

This is a present for my grandson and it’s also my first quilt.

I had some materials with sea side motifs. I sew together some triangular and square shaped fabric in blue. For the reverse side I used white cotton fabric. 

In my opinion the final result of the quilt wasn’t bad.
