Half Log Cabin or Wonky Bento Box

It seems fitting that my first post to this blog would be of a quilt 

that I just finished using one of Beth's tutorials at the Love Laugh 

Quilt blog. Thanks Beth!  Used her Half Log Cabin – Free Style 

tutorial. This was so fun and quick. I didn't use the paper foundation 

for my blocks but followed her method.  

Went to the Project Linus meeting yesterday and delivered the 

quilt. Forgot to take a final picture so these are pictures of the 

flimsy. I had picked up the black & white polka dot at a past meeting, 

4 yards, 18” wide, so perfect for this scrap busting project. 

I also took two flimsies I sewed together from orphan blocks I 

came home with at another meeting. The coordinator is planning a 

"sandwich” day, not an eating party, but a workshop to sandwich 

quilts from flimsies given to PL. Find a back, layer, sandwich, and 

baste the quilts as needed. Some are sewn at the workshop, some 

taken home. Some are taken to a retirement home where residents 

tie quilts. Lots of work gets done by many hands. 

 

Thanks again Beth for the tutorial. AND Thank you for creating the 

new blog. I'm glad you have invited us to join in the fun and share 

our projects.
