Ok finally got going on the Log cabin tonight.
This block will hopefully have another 5 rounds of the solids again then 3 more ful blocks besides.
Cuffed with my points. :)
This is my Mum and Dad's cabin, It got to much work for them putting up the Ti-Pi so we took and old caravan chassis and built a log cabin on it :o)

When I have small pieces left, I sew them together to make blocks. Mostly log cabin, and the outer round is black. When I have 100 like this, I can make a bed sized quilt.
Chicken pincushions make for Oh Sew Tempting's 'Chicken Run' swap.
Templates and instructions are on my blog.
A genuine old log cabin set on a hill along Boswell Run Road in Pike County, Ohio, A neighbor told me she thought it was the second cabin built on this scenic road, probably in the middle or early 1800's.

I took this photo in early April last year; it looks the same today.
A friend of mine is building this log cabin. He is into this Historical era completely. Abraham Lincoln is his hero.
My father finished building this log cabin in October, 1938 in the Yarnell community in Sawyer County Wisconsin. It's where my parents lived the first years of their marriage and where two sons were born. The cabin is lived in and still looks solid after about 75 years, doesn't it? I think the Shrock family gets the credit for it's maintenance.
A quilt for our nursery. The pattern is from an old issue of Quilts and More... love, love, love it! I backed this quilt with minkee.
A few ladies at my church wanted to learn to quilt, so with some prodding from me, my mother-in-law is heading up a Quilting 101 course. Instead of asking newbie quilters to complete a 'major' project on their own, we decided to do a group quilt to present to a gal from church who is going through a battle with cancer.
My MIL chose the log cabin because it's beginner-friendly, yet lends itself well to complex layout designs. She pieced teeny-tiny 2" gold tulips for the center of each cabin ---- teal is Sandy's favorite color (which is a good thing, 'cause this quilt is quite heavy on it!) We met as a group on 5 different occasions and taught the basic of quilting, from the quarter inch seam to rotary cutting, tying a quilt, and hand-stitching a binding. A little homework and this quilt was ready to present to Sandy on Easter Sunday, 2011.

Log Cabin Afghan a la Mason Dixon Knitting.
I have 20 squares so far. This is enough for a small throw. The yarn is Sugar 'n Cream which I used because it is cheap and comes in a lot of colors. I've only seen this yarn used to make dishcloths so I am a bit nervous about how this will turn out.
Any advice on how to join knit afghan squares?
Blogged about finishing the quilt here: craftblog.com.au/2009/12/01/declans-quilt-is-finished/
Monday I worked on this for about an hour only to be met with some HUGE puckers on the back, so I spent about three hours unpicking and I'm fairly certain I went blind in the process.
A couple of hours on Tuesday and Dan said that he was going to go insane if he heard the sewing machine run for any longer (I have to move to the kitchen table to quilt as my desk in the garage isn't big enough to support the weight fully) and it had to go on hold until Declan was back at preschool on Friday.
I'm trying out washing before binding, I read about it somewhere and now can't find it to reference. I'm glad I'm nearing the end, only the binding to stitch on, but I'm oddly excited to get started on Connor's red and yellow version.
