WIP Wednesday 1.21.2026

I pieced together the inner portion of the 1/4 log cabin quilt.


I had a dilemma...do I leave it as at 54 x 72 or do I add borders? It's too large to donate to the MelonHeads and too small for the local Red Cross/Casual Quilters. I embraced all the floral and went with a pink inner and the snowflake outer (that has pink n it!) and ta-da...ready for backing, quilting and binding. It's now big enough for the local Red Cross (they wish for twin size quilts - it measures 64 x 80 before quilting).


To make the blocks, I followed this 'cheat sheet' I wrote many years ago.

I like that combination of blues, grays, and the pops of pink! It's good that you were able to bring it up to the size you needed.

Wow-that turned out so nicely; the borders were a good decision!

I like the chunkiness of the quarter log cabins. The pink adds a pop of interest.
