wonky log cabin quilt
I finished my wonky log cabin quilt this morning. I LOVE how it turned out! It's such a happy quilt.
This one has been dubbed the smiley face block. :) I almost omitted these funky blocks, but my kids talked me out of it. I'm glad they did! The blocks certainly add a lot of character to the quilt.
This is one of the last ones that I pieced. I think it's my favorite one! Each block measures 15" square, which includes the white sashing.
Originally I was going to stipple the quilt, but after some troubles I went with a cross hatch instead. I'm so glad things worked out that way. The cross hatch quilting adds so much...on both the front and the back. The grid lines are about 2" apart.

The backing and binding fabric came from my stash. The combination of the two ended up being so happy and perfect! I always struggle when selecting a back for a scrappy quilt. Mainly because almost anything would work...it's hard to narrow things down.
The scraps in this quilt came from many previous projects and several came from generous friends. So many happy fabrics in the mix...just the way I like it! The quilt measures 60" x 80".
One more thing for today. I snapped this photo this morning. My kids are home from camp. :) I'm so happy to have them back!
