Thank you Carolyn! Speaking of traditional Log Cabin quilts, not only is yellow and red symbolic of history but the black in the center of the log cabin represented a safe house in the underground railroad. This is also a very important part of History.
If you do the half light/half dark log cabins then you can work out a huge variety of arrangements just by treating each block as a half-square triangle.
I can't get over how small those mini quilts are! I would love to see what the backs look like. When you do something like those, do you still use the 1/4 inch seems? Is possible, could you do a video showing what the backs look like and some tips on doing mini log cabins? Thanks!
The best way to do these mini log cabin blocks is to paper piece them. You can google mini log cabin paper piece block and get a free pattern to down load
