One giant modified Log Cabin block makes a charming baby quilt. It will also be lovely brightening a table.

Choose a favorite color or mix things up and use more than one. Sunny yellow mixed with black and white is pretty for spring and summer, or go with another hue to blend with the neutrals.

What sets this design apart is that the block is not divided into a light and dark side as is typical for Log Cabin blocks. Instead, the values are mixed together throughout the quilt.

Refer to the cutting instructions and layout chart to guide construction. Follow the photo for color placement and sew the quilt together using a 1/4″ seam.

The completed quilt from Joann is 48″x 48″. The size can be easily changed by adjusting the number of rings of strips.

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!
