    I think, but not sure, Jenny Doan, Missouri Quilt Co., has a tutorial for a Curved Log Cabin.

    I just recently made a curved log cabin. I designed the quilt in EQ7. I also used the Creative Grid curved log cabin ruler. The ruler made it really easy to construct the blocks and they were perfectly squared after you do the last trimming.

    a basic curve is established by changing the width of the strips. Example - one side uses 2 1/2" strips and the solid side uses 1 1/2" strips. The difference forces a curved look.

    Be sure to make a couple of sample blocks. My first one was a terrible color mess.

    I don't have a photo of my actual quilt; it's so much prettier than the drawn graphic.
