    Your sis will love it! Had never seen the floral version of Log Cabins until this board. I HAVE to have one for myself! They are beautiful!

    I find the best way to keep them square is to square them up after the addition of each strip. Accurate cutting and seams are vital!

    The better job you do as you sew, the more likely all squares will turn out the same size. You'll find the results very rewarding. Good Luck!!

    Hi Cindy, Thank you!! I don't have a lot of creams compared with the florals so I may have to get more. I probably have 10 at the most. I don't think the creams matter as much as the florals though, do you?? The variation on the florals gives it the punch I think.
    I agree with you, was just wondering how few I could get away with. I keep going back to page one, never get enough of looking at the blocks...

    I love your blocks. It's going to be a gorgeous quilt. I was just going through my florals and may have to try that one.
