My motto; the more fabrics the better.

Love it!

Here are the blocks or some of them. I still haven't decided what kind of lay-out to use. But my question is I wonder if I used to many scraps! Maybe I shouldn't have used so many different fabrics!
What do you think...he is going to get it anyway but for my next scrappy quilt maybe I should not get so "messy"!

No! Never too many fabrics. The fun of a log cabin is playing with the layout after you get the squares together. That usually takes me longer than assembling the squares. I keep seeing a new idea and keep moving them around.

It looks great!
More fabrics the better in scrappy!!
Love it ....don't change a thing.
My favorite pattern....turn your blocks to see which design you like the best. So many ways to put them.
