This remnant of the past lies in the Ranch Creek meadow on the west slope of the continental divide along the abandoned railroad grade (the Corona Road) between Corona Pass and the ski resort of Winter Park. I took this in August, 1971 while working at Beaver's Guest Ranch in Winter Park.

made as an example quilt for my 'beginners patchwork and quilting' evening class. Blogged: bearpawandbearpaw.blogspot.com/2011/08/quilt-finish-and-b...
I came upon this charming cabin in a clearing, peeking through an opening in the hedge along the side road. The sepia tones add a vintage quality to this photo.
After making my first quilt, this Log Cabin quilt was my next project in line. It was a major task and after piecing this one I decided I never wanted to make another quilt that was going to be larger than a twin size quilt.
The logs finished at 7/8" wide.
There are 17 logs in each block.
Each Block is 7 7/8" square (finished)
There is a total of 196 blocks. (set 14 across X 14 down)
The quilt measures 110" x 110" (without the red border)
It has 3,332 "log pieces" in the quilt.
I completed piecing it in about 3 months
Sadly I have not had it quilted yet but it was completed around the year 2000.
A collaboration between my sister and I, for my cousin's wedding. 30 wonky log cabins blogged here: www.eatplaysew.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/rachels-wedding-qu...
AB Love, DS FMF and DS Quilts, solids, some Japanese dots, Lizzy House, and AMH to bind it and dense straight line quilting---all of my fabric loves in one quilt.
the center of the block was a bee block from the 3x6 bee ages ago. that block inspired the rest of the quilt
This was my first attempt at machine quilting a whole, big quilt on my little bitty domestic sewing machine, a Singer Esteem II. This thing is king-sized. Lord help me!
Interesting view of some of the details in construction of a log cabin. Note the sills are rock and how the logs are hatched.
This quilt was inspired by Gwen Marston's liberated log cabin...I just love the look. I started off with a wonky center but as I progress outward my eye wanted right angles...amazing how you have to fight with what's familiar. For a first attempt not too bad, will let loose on the next!
this is the completed scrappy cabin top. all the blocks are different sizes, sashed with natural linen. blogged at www.tallgrassprairiestudio.blogspot.com
