How to sew LOG CABIN QUILT BLOCKS from your fabric scraps // #quiltingtutorial #quiltblock #sew

In this video I'll be showing you how to construct log cabin blocks as well as different quilt patterns you can arrange them in.

Log Cabin quilts have a rich and fascinating history dating back 200+ years to the North American West where settlers had very little and women would use fabric scraps from old clothing as well as feed sacks (which grain would have been shipped in) to make beautiful quilts with that could keep the family warm during harsh winters. Traditionally, the centre square of each quilt block would have been red to signify the hearth - the heart of the home - or yellow, signifying light coming through windows. I just love that..

Since those early days, there have been lots of variations on the log cabin quilt which you could read up on if you wanted to find out more about the tradition and heritage of this classic way of quilting.

Thanks so much for watching, as always!

I love scrappy, wonky log cabins. I like to leave the non-90-degree angles of my scrap strips to add that lively element to the piecing. All our training as quilters is to be so precise about angles (and everything else) but I do enjoy wonkiness in my quilts. Wonderful tutorial. I love your log cabin blocks.

I learnt how to do the log cabins with the dark/light pattern, I’m sure you know what it is. But I really like the way you did them with random colours. It looks really beautiful. I’m thinking of making a bag or a pouch and join the blocks with crochet… well, you know I like to do crazy things 😂💚🩷🧡❤️🩵💛🤎🤍💜💙

[luhare]

Where do you collect all the beautiful fabrics you are using to build your fantastic log cabin blocks? Very impressive!

[deborahcohen]

The pattern goes back more than two hundred years, if you look up egyptian cat mummies, they are often wrapped in a log cabin pattern
