A Modern Color Palette is a Fresh Touch!

Deep charcoal gray and brilliant crayon colors give a modern twist to the classic Log Cabin quilt. This striking quilt will become a much-admired focal point in whichever room you choose to display it.

Colorful tone-on-tone prints seem to glow next to the solid dark background. However, you can give the quilt a different personality that is just as interesting by softening the colors and contrasts.

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!
