Log Cabin Block


The Log Cabin quilt block is a timeless design cherished by quilters for its simplicity and versatility. Julie Baird of Generations Quilt Patterns offers detailed instructions for creating a 9-inch finished Log Cabin block, providing two variations: one with uniform strip widths and another featuring a larger center square. Her comprehensive guide includes cutting instructions and piecing sequences to assist quilters in crafting this classic block. (Source)

The Log Cabin block traditionally consists of a central square surrounded by strips, or "logs," added in a circular fashion. This method allows for numerous design possibilities, such as the Straight Furrows, ZigZag, and Barn Raising layouts, each offering a unique visual appeal.

Sheryl Johnson of Temecula Quilt Co. has beautifully brought this design to life, showcasing the enduring charm and adaptability of the Log Cabin pattern. Her work exemplifies how this traditional block can be transformed into stunning quilts that blend historical significance with contemporary artistry.
