This is a great ship pattern using log cabin squares:

But I'm wondering why make log cabin squares out of all the same fabric (as the pattern suggests) instead of just cutting large squares of fabric in that color? Does it make a difference in how the quilt will look when finished?

If you look at some patterns, the quilt will look a little different when you use solid blocks versus pieced ones...The seams in the pieced blocks do add another element to the over all appearance.
