Wow!! I love this quilt! I love the look, so soft and beautiful. It reminds me of a field of wildflowers. Thanks so much for sharing.

I need a great project to work on thru the long cold winter.

I feel the same way! Love log cabins, but have yet to do one! Now I am inspired! I will be watching this topic, so please keep posting & I hope you don't mind some of us doing our own similar version! How wide are your strips & how big is each block? I really love your first design layout of this, but all your blocks are beautiful! They will all make a lovely quilt! How big do you plan for your finished quilt to be?...Great job!...I am truly inspired, to say the least!...

Wow, what a beautiful way to create a log cabin! I am simply amazed at the beauty of the finished quilt (old or new). I love florals and have tons of scraps of them and would really like to give this a try. Thank you for your creativity and your inspiration to try something new!!!!

That is gorgeous! The floral prints give it such a different look from other log cabins - I love it!

As for which block setting, I like the combination using both, as in that first quilt photo you showed us, also like using both on the two little quilts you recently posted, the doll quilts, right! They are all lovely, no matter the layout...
