A Log Cabin Block Sparkles in This Beautiful Block
| June 8, 2025 | Quilt Blocks
Choose Between Several Block Sizes!
Make something special with this beautiful block. A Log Cabin block inside a star offers many design opportunities.
Create a focal point by fussy cutting the center of the block for a bit of whimsy. You can also use any solid or print there, and let the star be the main focus.
The block is created with paper piecing for crisp, accurate results. It’s easy to make and perfect for those new to the technique. You’ll find excellent FPP instructions here.
Designer Ingrid Alteneder from Joe June and Mae provides instructions for the following block sizes:
- 4“x 4“ (4 ½“x 4 ½“ unfinished)
- 5“x 5“ (5 ½“x 5 ½“ unfinished)
- 6“x 6“ (6 ½“x 6 ½“ unfinished)

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
