I was scanning through the blog archives for photos of the log cabin quilt I hinted at in my first post back in 2007 and found that I don't think I ever shared photos of the actual completed quilt.
So here she is:
I really still love this little quilt, although it's a little more traditional than I would make these days. It was also in the days when I never made a quilt without a pattern. Blogging sure changed that!
It seems like I did some bathroom basting back in the day and had just forgotten...
and I used to take such lovely photos back when time wasn't an issue...
All this reflecting is making me a little nostalgic and thinking about how much simpler things were back in '07.

ReplyDeleteI love how you laid out your blocks.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun quilt! It's always fun to look back and see how tastes have changed over time. Looking at this one, I would have never guessed it was yours. You definitely have some traditional roots! :)

ReplyDeleteIt is very sweet, such a neat collection of blues, and the traditional tiny red square-! Thank for sharing it, Anina.
ReplyDeleteThere is just something about blue quilts that makes my heart melt. It's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI totally adore your blue log cabin quilt!
ReplyDeleteI started quilting after visiting blogs, life has never been the same after that! I love that I need to take pictures now because I have a blog.
Never having made a log cabin quilt, I must say I'm very impressed with this and your selection of colors. I think it's the monochromatic look that I like so much. Lovely hand quilting, too. Thanks for digging it up and showing it to us... it's beautiful.
