Create a Striking Log Cabin Quilt with Vibrant Colors

| Go Scrappy or Select a Controlled Color Palette!
Vibrant colors bring this classic Log Cabin quilt to life. At first glance, the darks seem like solid black, but upon closer inspection, you’ll discover that a variety of deep colors were used to add movement and interest to the quilt.
This is a great project for scraps as the design lends itself to a scrappy color combination. Or go with a more controlled one like that used in the example.
Tried and true techniques make this a relatively simple project, although it’s probably best for intermediate quilters with solid cutting and piecing skills.
The completed quilt designed by Sherri Bain Driver is 79″ x 97″.

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!
