Log Cabin Quilt Pattern, Using Simple Quilt Block Patterns

 There are only 2 quilt blocks to this quilt and 
what makes it look like many more is the fabric.  Machine pieced and I hand quilted with large stitches. You will need a total of 20 quilt blocks to make this quilt as shown. I didn't over think fabric, if it was a paisley, it was in and if it was a plaid, it was in, everything was from my closet. not thinking about ANY placement. Cut square and let the piecing go as it may ! Finished block size 6" x 6"  Here is how I sew squares.

Quilt Block Pattern ONE

Cut 4 assort colors - 2 1/2" x 2 1/2"

Sew into 4-Patch

Cut 1 plaid, - 4 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew to the right side

Cut 1 plaid  - 5 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew to top

Cut 1 plaid  - 5 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew to left side

Cut 1 plaid  - 6 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew to bottom

It's been washed hundreds of time and is soooo.... soft.

 

Quilt Block Pattern TWO

Cut on center - 2 1/2" x 2 1/2"

Cut 2 green plaids for sides - 2 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew to sides

 

Cut 2 green plaids - 4 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew to the top and bottom

 

Cut 2 blue plaids, 4 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew to the sides

 

Cut 2 blue plaids - 6 1/2" x 1 1/2" 

Sew to the top and bottom

Strip between quilt blocks,

Cut 2=3 1/2" x 6 1/2"

Strips long ways 3 1/2" x 6 1/2" with 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" squares
5 1/2" paisley border and binding.

The finished size is a square 50" x 50" a good size for curling up on the couch. I used a 100% cotton batting and hand quilted.

  IN PRINT a GREAT GIFT  Husband and I retired early, he was 57, and I was 55. Most people hear us say our ages and they ask, “What do you do all day?” VERY, very rarely do they ask, “How do you afford it?” This book has NO money talk, it’s all about happiness.   Now in Print and eBook  ! !  To me that is hilarious: before retirement you plan financially, you plan the date, but you don’t take time to figure out what you want to do for 20-30 years of retirement. I have seen it now for five years. How to Survive Retirement   PLEASE retire happy! “If you are unhappy….us other old people don’t want to be around you.”

Step by step cutting directions, a getting started section on how to make squares, triangle, quarter squares and adding triangles to corner units. And just added a how to bind your quilt section.

How I bind a Quilt and Hand Stitch it Down

I'm sharing the way "I" do quilt binding. Like everything in quilting there are MANY ways. This is the way "I" do it ! ! 

Cut your strip 2 ½” inches wide and long enough to go 

all the around your quilt PLUS 6-8 Inches

More is ALWAYS better with this

The Quilt Ladies NOW on Kindle and NOOK 

 Cut enough strips to go around the outside edge of your quilt.

Sew all strips together with a 45-degree angle.

 Sew and Trim to ¼ inch seam allowance

Open and Press and trim any ends. 

Do this to make all binding needed.

The Quilt Ladies NOW on Kindle and NOOK

 

BUT ALWAYS check YOUR BOBBIN THREAD, make sure you have enough to make it all the way around the quilt. NOTHING worse than to stop and fill or change a bobbin! 

This is where "I" do it a bit different, I just can't get the seam right using the fold the corner way, I do a straight seam here as shown

Start sewing about 5-6 inches from your binding end, 

Sew the binding with a ¼ inch seam allowance. 

 I mark with a pin on each corner

Sew the binding with a ¼ inch seam allowance. Stop ¼ from the edge. Back stitch a few stitches.

Fold the binding back.

Fold binding back down on to the Quilt. Match up edges.

A diagonal fold will form between the layers and a straight fold on top. Do corners one at a time, but

Do this on all four corners

Stop sewing about 4-5 inches from the first end. 

Pin well, fold over and match the ends

Press

Open up and mark your SEWING line 

On both sides

This is your SEWING line, Sew and trim seam.

Continue sewing the binding to the quilt. 

The right side of the quilt

You will need to trim your batting, I like to trim mine about an 1/8 of an inch from the binding

edge

The Quilt Ladies NOW on Kindle and NOOK

Fold the binding open

Pull it over the machine stitches. 

Pin and I like to hand stitch

Blind Stitch, I like to hide my knot in the inside.

Single thread, I use about 18 inches at a time. 

Catch just a bit of fabric on the binding, 

Take a stitch straight across and then back into the binding just a few threads.

Make sure your thread matches and as below, I have about 6-8 stitches down in this photo

 Stitch all the way into the fold.

Pull your needle out and fold other corner over, 

Sew the corners closed on BOTH sides. Back side here

Push needle through and stitch the front corner seam closed. 

Push needle through to the back and continue sewing around the quilt.

Finished corners.

 Do all Four
