Design Concept
I have always loved traditional
log cabin quilts, but wasn’t interested in making one
in a traditional way. This quilt was constructed like a traditional
log cabin except that none of the blocks are square. Instead
of using a rectangular grid I drew lines at various angles
so the blocks became quadrilaterals of different sizes and
shapes.
The center fabric squares are
a commercial novelty print, and the other fabrics used in
this quilt are all from the “Gradations” collection,
which I designed for Benartex.
