| He looks happy. Is he happy? Now I'm cutting a smaller one the same, for us, because we need those colours in our lounge-room and the OTL always pulls up a blanky and has a little sleep. |
'Here' is for chat about all things stitching, is a place to link to my various other sites, and somewhere to show and tell and never shut up.

The One True's Log Cabin Quilt
Made mostly using vintage Japanese silks.
The idea is (as I keep saying) to use my stash. But... I had to buy extra, which is like having permission to go sick at the lolly shop (Kazari/Ziguzagu). Plus use Phillips Shirts fabric for the back.
The quilt is around 1.2-3 metres square.

| The anomaly in the corner was accidental, but I'm happy to leave it. |
| Back, obviously. I put a facing all round to get a good edge. It's difficult otherwise to do the zig-zags neatly. |
