    Yes but be glad you caught it before you had sewed the blocks together. Easy to do with a log cabin.

    I've only made one log cabin block. They look so easy. Mine was square, kind of, but the strips were quacky. I want to make a mini, so I think I'll paper piece it. These actually look pretty good. There are so many different kinds and shapes of log cabins, no one would have known it wasn't meant to be this way.

    Of course if you save the one you decide is a mistake. It will make a good start on a potholder. :)

    I think you can just go with it. It is your interpretation of the pattern. They look great.

    So many times I see a Log Cabin block suggested as an easy block. I think No Way is that an easy block. I know this from experience.LOL.

    I found it easy once I put the strips in the right order. I was thinking I might have to make quilt using log cabin blocks.

    You can see the new blocks I made on page 3.

    I see it, as I have made many log cabin blocks, and they are not as simple as they look. you reaslly have to be paying attention

    Why not make one more and put the odd one in the middle? She'll think you planned it that way.
