@Pearl no photos.....as you well know  :P :D
I wanted it done before my holiday  <3
@Lowena I'm sure someone could go and steal copy your pics off a certain well-known social media site... :P 0_0

Edit:  Obviously I will not be doing any of this patchwork malarkey, I'm just here to be nosy to see what you all are doing.

I think it's to do with the lengths of the logs.
Life's too short for ironing.

I have a curvy log cabin ruler so that part was easy.

Two blocks

Block A - wide logs - one yellow, one cream
              marrow logs - purple

Block B - wide logs - one purple, one cream
               narrow logs - yellow


Think I’ll make another one of these.

Done and done. I made two to match the two single quilts that I'm going to make for my twin beds.

Had a spare hour this afternoon so made my block. Are we supposed to be putting photos on here?

@Lowena won't like this one much but I'm trying to use up what fabric I already have. I'll be doing the whole quilt in these colours, with each block surrounded by white to tone it down a little. (Checked the photo on screen, and the blue is not a blue at all but three shades of purple!)

Can we start quilting each block so that we're all ready to assemble them at the end of the year?

I was unsure of the green at first, but I needed at least 3 different fabrics in each colourway, and I don't have a huge stash so I had to go with what I've got. :)

I did that on purpose because I didn't want the two tone effect 1/2.  0_0 I just wanted big bold cushions for the bed.

Does it not count? I can do a proper one if you like.

Well if you've got your eye on the prize @wrenkins  ... other than that I think you've just invented a new block (yes, yes I know theres no such thing, but its my Darkside and anyway Who's Queen?... )  Wrenkies Cabin!
