Hello! It's time for AHIQ again.
Up for the challenge? The theme is scale.
I thought about what I could do with scale and since I've been on a Log Cabin block roll, I decided to make up smaller size Log Cabins.
Looking at my 'liberated' light log cabin quilt with 6 1/2" blocks and two borders, I thought maybe I'd put on another border with small log cabins.
Getting out scraps I began making up small 'cabins'.
When I got them all trimmed up, I changed my mind. I think the small cabins look great together as a mini quilt.
And 'Light & Liberated' isn't getting any more borders today.
Stop in to get inspired and see what other improv is going on!
I'll be by to visit.
Well, no one said all your play with scale had to go into one quilt! I really like how your thin green border frames the log cabin blocks and the outer border with cornerstones. Thanks for linking up with AHIQ.
ReplyDeleteThat's good to know!
DeleteI'm glad you like the green border.
AHIQ is fun and inspiring.
Log cabin is maybe the very best block if you want to change the scale. In some quilt shows I have seen mini-mini-mini quilts made up of the tiniest of log cabins.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
Yes, I think you're right.
DeleteThe mini log cabins are amazing and take a lot of attention to detail.
Great "cabins"! The thin border of the lime frames it very nicely.
ReplyDeleteThank you Pamela.
DeleteThat green is Kona solid 'Wasabi' one of my favorite colors
right now.
Depending on the light it can look lime or almost yellow.
I think your decision to make a separate quilt with your little 'cabins' is a great plan - at least I thought that, once I got over the shock that they were so small!!!
ReplyDeleteI love watching you develop sophisticated quilts in such small dimensions. They are wonderful. Good call to split these blocks up and a reminder to us all. Thanks for linking with AHIQ.
