A few years ago my daughter mentioned that she would like a quilt. I asked what colours she would like and she immediately said brown and turquoise. I asked what pattern she wanted and she said "I want the same one that is hanging in Nana's room". I asked if that would be the log cabin. I showed her what that would look like and sure enough, that was the one she was thinking of. My Mother has a quilt rack shelf that hangs in the computer room and one of the quilts is a log cabin. Here is a picture of the quilt I'm currently working on for my daughter.
I've surely received my love of quilting from my Mom. She has been quilting for quite a few years and it has only been about the last 10 years that it's become all I really want to do. My Grandmother also quilted and we have pictures of she and her sisters all sitting around the quilting frame working on a pretty quilt with ladies holding umbrellas. Mom says it is called 'Colonial Lady'. Thanks Mom!
Hope you are all enjoying whatever project you are working on this week and happy sewing!!
