In Part 3 it's time to make the 16 x Log Cabin blocks. I love the simple heritage of these blocks and they really shine in this quilt - the mix of all the gorgeous main fabrics coming together just zings.
Simple but highly effective
Once I had prepped my pieces, I turned my afternoon into a Log Cabin Production Line..
To make sure my blocks didn't grow, I drew a 5.5 inch square on my mini ironing board. My mini ironing board is simply a wooden board that I cover in layers of freezer paper by ironing them down on top of each other.
When I'm creating something specific, like this production line, I draw the template down on the freezer paper before ironing it. Then, when I'm finished, I simply tear away that freezer paper sheet and iron down a new sheet. I also do this in-between applique sessions that use glue to keep my ironing board spotlessly clean. It works for me!
Morning Glory is my current paid BOM. It's an applique and pieced quilt.
