Not an antique but with that antique look. I busily cut strips of red and white fabrics. I may have added to my stash with selected purchases. 😄 My blog post outlining my start is here.
Yellow centers, not 9 patches, no pink, just red and white fabrics:
Laid out on the design floor, some blocks sewn together:
This will keep me occupied for awhile! The logs finish at 1 inch, the blocks are 10 inches square, and the quilt will be 70 by 90 inches. I made 64 blocks, initially planning on a set of 8 blocks by 8 blocks, but 7 by 9 blocks works better on a bed. No borders for this project, just a scrappy red binding.

Love red and white quilts and yours looks gorgeous! Just the right shade of red too.
I love log cabin blocks but haven't made any since my stint after taking a class on them. Maybe someday I will get around to another one.
Hard to go wrong with red and white. There was an incredible installation at the Houston show several years ago. I love yours and glad the you stuck to just red and white.
Red and White. Some will disagree, but how can you go wrong! Beautiful!
Oh wow!!! that is so cool!
This would make a great QOV, instead of the yellow centers add blue. Thank you for the inspiration, I will keep that in mind. It looks wonderful. Thank you for linking up to Put your foot down.
