Log Cabin blocks + a FQ bundle giveaway!

So I have three fun things to share today and they all have something to do with one of my favorite quilt blocks: the Log Cabin.  You just can't ever go wrong with a classic quilt block, right?  (Make sure you read all the way to the end of the post - there's an awesome fq bundle being given away!)

First up, have you seen this new book recently released from Martingale called I Love Log Cabins?

  Fun new book from Martingale called I Love Log Cabins

This fun book has 16 different quilts - all variations on Log Cabin blocks.  I'll show you just a few of my favorites.

Hourglass Courthouse Steps quilt from the book I Love Log Cabins from Martingale

This one is called Hourglass Courthouse Steps, designed by Audrie Bidwell (Blue is Bleu).  Love those colors!

Blaze quilt from the book I Love Log Cabins from Martingale

This gorgeous quilt is called Blaze and was designed by Amy Smart (Diary of a Quilter).  I love the secondary design created in this one!



Herringbone quilt from the book I Love Log Cabins from Martingale

I also love this Herringbone quilt designed by Heather Andrus (Quilt Story).  The blocks in this quilt are similar to ones I've been working on for 8 months or so now.  

Fun and scrappy log cabin blocks by A Bright Corner.  She had a free downloadable paper piecing pattern!

These are my blocks!  Each block is 7" (finished size) and made using my fun, bright scraps and low volume scraps.  I was sewing with a friend of mine one day and the project she brought to work on were these scrappy log cabin blocks.  I fell in love and she generously shared her foundation pattern with me.  I started making my blocks that day!  You can see more of Amber's quilt here on her blog.  Amber also has a tutorial for paper piecing in case you're new to it.

I love foundation piecing (a.k.a. paper piecing) these log cabin blocks because it helps them be so nice and accurate!  And I didn't need to go through my messy scrap bin and press / cut each piece to an exact size before hand.

Click here to download / print the block pattern.  On the block pattern you'll notice the letters "A" and "B" and some numbers.  If you're doing blocks like mine, use bright fabrics on the A sections, and low volume prints on the B sections.   That will give you a block that looks like the photos above.

I think what makes these scrappy log cabin blocks really shine is a fun variety of low volume prints.

And speaking of low volume prints.... Anyone needing some fun new low volume fabrics to add to their stash?  The Fat Quarter Shop is generously giving away this fat quarter bundle of Modern Paper Backgrounds to one of my lucky readers!

I love this bundle of 20 fq - FULL of awesome low volume prints that are perfect for using in backgrounds.  These would be perfect to use on some scrappy log cabin blocks!  To enter the giveaway, leave a comment below telling me whether or not you've ever tried paper piecing before.  I'm curious!  

Giveaway is open until Midnight on June 9th.  Winner will be announced June 10th.  

As always, thanks for reading, and happy sewing!

  11. Yes, I have tried paper piecing before. It was actually a six inch log cabin block. I used it to make a pot holder. I heard that log cabin blocks are difficult to make in with traditional piecing. I was curious about fpp and decided to give it a go. It was the most accurate quilt block I have ever sewn. I fell in love with it. Thank you for the chance to win these AMAZING fqs. They have me drooling.

  20. I love paper piecing and can't believe I've never thought to do a log cabin quilt that way. Thanks for the inspiration! P.S. I'm going to need those low volume fabrics for my next project - a paper pieced log cabin quilt!

  22. never have but always willing to learn

  23. I have tried it and am using it right now to make triangle square blocks. Thank you for a chance to win!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Paper piecing a log cabin block had not been on my To Do list but I can see that sewing these small blocks/pieces using that method would be best for accuracy. I've only paper pieced a design that was then appliqued. Thanks for a chance in the giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Yes, I did some paper-piecing for the FW 1930's quilt-along and although I like the look it's not my favorite sewing and piecing method. Curiosly enough I'm just now paper-piecing some mine log-cabins, too, but with 17 logs and a finished 4.5" block.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I tried paper piecing and I was not a fan; however this assortment of fabrics would be perfect for an applique quilt I was planning in my head yesterday when I was supposed to be working!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I just started paper piecing last week! And I liked it WAY more than I thought I would!

    ReplyDelete
  28. I have never make a log cabin quilt but, it is on my list
    I did try to paper piece once but, it was a disaster

    ReplyDelete
  29. I've done a fair amount of paper piecing but never fell in love with it. I think it's the paper removal I dislike. I keep thinking of doing a log cabin with paper because it would be such pleasant, mindless sewing.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I've done a lot of paper piecing. I especially like it for new york beauty blocks (which I love), log cabin, and pineapple blocks. I only use it for log cabin blocks if the strips are really narrow.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I have never tried paper piecing before but it the finished pieces look so nice. Thanks for such a wonderful giveaway!!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I have done some paper piecing but not a lot. I like to use it on small blocks for accuracy but the complicated patterns scare me! I love log cabins. Thanks for a great giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I've tried paper piecing a couple of times but I'm too slow at it. It's been a while so maybe it's time to try it again. Thank you!!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I LOVE scrappy log cabin blocks! Yours are wonderful...great combo of brights and low volume...thanks for the giveaway!

  35. I've done a little bit of paper piecing. You can make such detailed blocks with it. Love the fabric in you log cabin blocks. Log cabins quilts are the best!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I have done some paper piecing, and find it very accurate! Your log cabins turned out so cute! I'm thinking it may even work well for a strip pieced quilt I am working on.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I love foundation paper piecing. A friend taught me how, just a few months after I started quilting. It's that English paper piecing that I can't do. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Yes, I finally learned to paper piece just last month thanks to Amy Gibson's Sugar Block of the Month. So happy I finally took the plunge cuz I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I have only tried paper piecing a couple of times but plan to give it another try. I love the low volume fabrics and scrappy brights in your log cabin blocks!

    ReplyDelete
  40. I haven't tried paper piecing yet. But, I'm only on my 2nd quilt.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I have tried paper piecing and i LOVE how the blocks turned out. My issue is I can only do a couple blocks at a time and at the slow rate I make them the quilt I want to make might take 20 years to complete. LOL Guess that means I just need to make more so I get faster at it.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I have not ever paper pieced but it's on my "goal" sheet for this year. And Log Cabins are my favorite blocks so I guess I'm ready to jump in.

    ReplyDelete
  49. I don't care for paper piecing as it makes me feel dyslexic sewing to the back side. I have made a log cabing quilt using the traditional method, however. Would love this bundle of lovely background fabrics. Thanks.

  50. I have done some paper piecing in the past. Mostly small items and pillows. I have not seen this log cabin book. I have made log cabin quilts and these patterns look something I would love to try.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I love that FQ stack of fabrics. Paper piecing isn't my favorite way to piece but it sure is accurate! The log cabins are wonderful.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I have a little bit of experience with paper piecing, it was really fun!! I have been wanting to make a quilt using low volume fabrics and have had my eye on this bundle too!!!

    ReplyDelete
  53. I've never done paper piecing, but I've been dying to try it! I think this is the perfect project for it!

    ReplyDelete
  54. I've done a log cabin quilt paper piecing and a few other smaller projects and I love it. The precision really makes me happy ! Haha

    ReplyDelete
  55. I've only tried it once in a class a few years ago. I love the precision you get with paper piecing. I'm excited to try it again! Thanks for sharing the block pattern!

    ReplyDelete
  56. Will have to try pp again. Would love those low volume to work with. 😀

    ReplyDelete
  57. Absolutely ! The first quilt class I took was a paper piecing class! I love the accuracy of paper piecing!

    ReplyDelete
  58. I paper pieced a heart. Fun! The fq bundle would be so great bc that's my trouble......knowing what low volume print to use. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I LOVE paper piecing! There is so much freedom with what you can create.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I haven't, but I would love to learn how.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I haven't tried foundation paper piecing yet, it's on my list for this year.

    ReplyDelete
  62. I have paper pieced about 20 pineapple log cabin blocks. It took a few tries to
    understand the technique, but then I found it enjoyable. The technique makes the blocks very accurate, which I like. I don't have much in the way of low volume prints, so these fat quarters would be a welcome addition.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Yes, I love the crisp, finished effect of a paper-pieced block!

    ReplyDelete
  64. I love it! It's my favorite! It kind of ruined me for regular piecing. Why mess with all the finicky pieces of regular quilting when you can paper piece it and it's perfect. I've never made a log cabin paper pieced block but it seems great. All those perfect lines.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Wow, love the fabric you used. Foundation piecing sounds like a great way to use scraps.

    ReplyDelete
  66. I love your choice of fabrics as usual. I will have to try this with all my scraps:)

    ReplyDelete
  67. I have paper pieced and do like the accuracy of the process. Don't like the ripping paper off process. I've seen Crazy mom quilts is also on a log cabin kick and say yours and thought it was her post. I would love the chance to win this bundle as I don't have enough low volume prints to make a quilt like this though I'd love to make one.

    ReplyDelete
  68. My first quilt was a log cabin pattern. It might have been a little rough looking and wasn't paper pieced, but I was very happy with it. The main colors were shades of red, black and ivory. I tried paper piecing once from Craftsy. I don't understand the concept of paper piecing but I would like to give it a try again.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I've made several quilts with paper piecing. I've done floral quilts designed by Eileen Sullivan. I've also got a pineapple log cabin that I need to finish. Paper piecing is a great way to do more detailed patterns in a more accurate manor.

    ReplyDelete
  70. I have a couple times and failed miserably!

  71. I have never paper-pieced, but I keep thinking I'll try--those perfect points are awfully tempting!

  78. Paper piecing is never easy for me. My brain doesn't like thinking backwards. I finished Carol Doak's 50 stars twice and it was hard. Lots of seam ripper action and 4 letter words. I do love log cabins. Just finished a great one. I will need to get this book for sure.

  79. I have done a little paper piecing and really want to try it with this log cabin pattern. Thanks for the chance to win. I could really use these. Low volume prints are something I'm not comfortable using but love how your blocks are turning out and would really like to try it.

  91. I'm a beginner quilter so haven't tried paper piecing yet. I keep saving pots about it though, so I guess it's inevitable that I'll give it a go at some point, maybe as a panel on a pouch or cushion. Love the low volume prints, thanks for the chance to win.

  92. Hello Andy! Thank you for your great post with gorgeous pictures and the FB bundle give away! Love it!!!
    I paper piece all the time and create my own patterns with special software. I adore the freedom of shapes and the precision it gives. I have been working on a bug quilt from swap blocks, but it needs to get bigger. I am using many low volume fabrics in the new blocks which are all paper pieced.
    Hugs and good luck to everyone! May the luckiest quilter win!

  145. The 1st quilt i was given was a log cabin from my from my Grandmother. I could not in shine how she sewed such straight lines. I would like to make one with straight lines and i know paper piecing would help me do that. I can not wait to try it. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.
