This was taken at Dusk with the sun just having gone down with a 30 second exposure at f!4 at ISO 100. I was trying to capture the colors my eye sees. They seem more dynamic in dim light.
I don't know if I have developed a fear of yellow but I had the hardest time with this block. It didn't help that I had already seen the wonderful blocks made by Katy and Katie and every time I looked at the fabric I could only think of those blocks.
See subconsciously I have made the same posie box!
in 2007, my husbands grandmother was going blind and I promised to make her a quilt. So that she could see the pattern, I went with a simple log cabin and did it in black and white.
She used this quilt until she died. Now my mother in law has it and keeps it with her in her room.
blocks made with the tutorial by Red Pepper Quilts (www.redpepperquilts.com/2011/11/now-back-to-some-regular-...)
yes I know, I got a bit carried away with the quilting, but I finally figured out how to machine quilt whithout a walking foot, I just couldn't stop :)
43 x 54 - This quilt was started after reading a post “Log Cabin Lunatics” at (juliekquilts.blogspot.com). After 2 days of cutting and piecing, the 20 completed blocks were joined into a quilt top and will be donated to the Outerbanks Hospital Infusion Center.
I am so happy that this quilt is finished. It has been so slow going. I started back in December and finished it last night. With us moving it messed me up and time got away from me. But now I have one happy boy.
The George Haag family home located about 3 tenths of a mile west of the intersection of North St. and Winchester Rd., on the south side, in the Town of Neenah. The family arrived circa 1867. They are not on the 1862 plat map but they are on the 1873. In 1873 they had 60 acres in Section 19. They are also on the 1897 and 1902 plat maps in the same location. The 1900 directory shows George Haag owning 60 acres. The 1905 plat map shows they are gone. When the log cabin was raised the Twin City News Record ran a story but the date was not preserved.

photo by Cecilia P.- Although the steel stairway is definitely not part of frontier architecture, this is otherwisr a great example of restorative nostalgia. the exterior of this log cabin was contructed true to the traditional techniques of such a structure.
I wanted to call this "Psychedelic Dream" but as soon as Eyal lay down underneath it he said he felt so loved he had to call it the Love Quilt. thirdgirlfromtheright.blogspot.com
beth and i spent the whole day sunday shooting at a wild fowl reserve...yeah there were some interesting birds there but this is probably my favourite picture from all that i took...
this back was inspired by an idea from my hubby - gnomes in the middle of the planet... and then the molten lava, (lots of it) and the earth's crust, some rocks, fossils and the soil layer with lots of water (as you can see, the back is much larger than the front, so it won't have so much water)
This is a GIANT log cabin block - and I shook it up by doing it a bit wonky, with different width bands and only 3 strips of each fabric around instead of 4
There was a fair amount of rain during my visit, but it was usually very light, almost a mist, so we could continue working.
...are all too big. Cut them down or send them out and let my teammates decide the final size?

EDITED TO ADD: I just realized the title said "First floor blocks" instead of "First four blocks." Perhaps I've spent too much time at the sewing machine today!

I got a little carried away when I decided to spend my afternoon off catching up on Scrappy Sew Bee It Swap blocks... I ended up making 6 neutral log cabins for Rosa.
Blogged about here.
I used scraps from my civil war quilt to make this log cabin quilt top. It will be given to a veteran at the McQuire V.A. Hospital in Richmond, VA for Christmas. Last year my quilting group gave almost 50 quilts and we are hoping to exceed that this year because Walter Reed Hospital is closing and many from the Iraq and Afghanistan war will be coming to Richmond. We aim for a size of 48" x 60" as that works well on a hospital bed. I used 1" logs to make a 7" block.
