scrappy cabin finish

I started this scrappy log cabin quilt in 2020 with a bag of leftover scraps. I made it string style and used nearly all the scraps. I was able to make 41 blocks and a small donation/ baby quilt. In April, I chose to quilt it as part of my 5 quilts projects to finish older UFOS. I found this tutorial on line.

54 x62 = 10 yards


I just happened to have a large enough piece of this vintage fabric for the backing - way cool.

    A very fun finish! That vintage backing is really cool and it goes so well with the scrappy front.
