Fabulous thank you ….. I have a son that wants a queen sized quilt and I love the darkest in the centre. I am going to try this with left overs to practice as you said. Thank you for your video
This was a wonderful tutorial that was understandable (is that a word lol) I took a class at Joannes in the Viking center doing this block. You clarified areas I was unsure of even tho we sewed. Thank you!
I have never been able to sew a nice, flat, even edged block...ever!! Until today, watching your tutorial. I do all the measuring, the 1/4 " seam, ironing, etc, it still is uneven and awful to the point I won't even consider doing this type of block. Then you say to cut the strips 1/2 " longer and trim each piece...well, dang, there is the magic!!! I am so pleased, I finally made a block I can keep!!!! Thank you so much!!!❤️😎
I am trying to get motivated to make my first quilt, and have always loved the Log Cabin design. Your explanation is very, very helpful in understanding how to organize everything to be successful. Thank you so much!....❤Brenda
Hi Brenda. If this is your first attempt at making a quilt, you might want to consider the disappearing 9-patch quilt. It is a lot easier quilt project to start with. In case you are interested here is the link to the tutorial: th-cam.com/video/3ex1IqVgpp8/w-d-xo.html Have fun making your quilt, and thanks for watching. 😍
Cheryl, I absolutely love your very instructive video ... and yes! ... I too love your "absolutely favourite way" of putting the log cabin blocks together. Sending you thankful hugs from England :)
I have been looking this channel for a while! So glad to have found you! I am making my best friend a Log Cabin Quilt. He has been such a blessing in my lyfe. Red and cream. I have subscribe so I got you now! ❤❤❤❤😉
Hi Nancy. If you want to make a large quilt, you can buy log cabin quilt patterns. They will usually list the amount of fabric for twin, full, queen/king. You can purchase one from a quilt shop, Joann Fabrics and Crafts, and internet websites - Missouri Start Quilt Company. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍
Cheryl, why do you make the blocks a little bigger for the log cabin blocks? I love your blocks. I am only learning, haven't tried anything. Thank you so much
Hi Sherrill! Great instructional video! My question is about measurements: your block is 11"x11" and you start in the center with 1 2"x2" square. Then the next is 2"x4"; the 3rd is 2"x5 1/2", then 2"x7", etc til you get to 2"x10". Is there a formula for the sizes & lengths for each strip? In other words, if the center is a different dimension (not 2"x2", maybe 1"x1" for example), how would one determine what the subsequent "logs" length would be?
Hi Joan. I have no specific formula. If you want your finished block to be a specific size, there are many log cabin quilt patterns that you can buy. You can purchase patterns from quilter fabric websites - equilter.com, fatquartershop.com, fabric. com, - and many others. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍
This block I’ve always liked, especially the traditional with a red center that represents the hearth or fireplace in the middle! You can also google different cabin block layouts and see different secondary design possibilities- so many options! Is there a specific rule as to which direction you should press the seams to? Nice tutorial.
I bought a panel of a scarecrow today. I was planning to hang it on my door. I don't know how to "stuff" certain areas of it to make it stand out. Do you have a video on this? If not, can you please explain it to me?
Hi Judy. I recommend you buy a log cabin pattern that gives all the supplies needed for a queen size quilt. Many quilt fabric websites sell patterns. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍
Hi Dianne. Most sashing strips are about 2 1/2" wide. Cut a few strips and lay it in between the blocks and see if you like it. There are no rules in quilting -- just suggestions. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing.
Hi, I am very curious ... why do you press the seams to one side, rather than opening them up? Is it just because it's easier? Or does it look better when it's finished? Or ... ?
Hi Monelle. Excellent question. Yes, it is easier to press to one side rather than pressing the seams open. But, it is easier to match the seams in a row to another row when they are pressed in opposite directions from each other. I hope I answered your question. Thanks for watching. Happy sewing.
Hi Dagi. The amount of fabric you will need depends on the number of blocks you plan on making. You can probably make 2 blocks out of 1/8 yard of each. Stay safe, and happy sewing.
Hi Washiela. Yes you can use it in a table runner. Decide how long you want the runner. Chain them together using a 1/4" seam. You will find it makes an interesting pattern. You can also add a small border around the edges. Hope this helps. By the way, my grandfather was born in Liverpool. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing.
Hi M. A. Trenary. I cut 2" wide strips. Refer to the video. At a little more than 3 minutes into the video I have a list of the size of the strips. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing.
Thank you for sharing this video. Your layout options are beautiful!

How much material do i need for a queen size quilt
Hi Judy. I recommend you buy a log cabin pattern that gives all the supplies needed for a queen size quilt. Many quilt fabric websites sell patterns. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing. 😍
What size you cut your Sashing strips at for something like that
Hi Dianne. Most sashing strips are about 2 1/2" wide. Cut a few strips and lay it in between the blocks and see if you like it. There are no rules in quilting -- just suggestions. Thanks for watching, and happy sewing.
I love this simple block. Check out Jordan Fabrics. They have pre-cut log cabin kits.
Wish: I bought fabric nice and not expensive at all!!
