... A new UFO (un-finished object) to carry into the New Year? I sometimes play the UFO game. I am part of an internet group where we keep track of UFO's and try to get them done. Any project started in 2020 or earlier officially becomes a UFO on Jan. 1 2021. I try and cut some new projects at the end of December, just so that I can finish them in the new year.
And, I have a lot of Civil War and 1800's reproduction fabrics, that I really should use up, instead of purchasing new fabric. I have used my reds and shirting fabric, and pinks and shirtings, in previous projects. I found I had lots of browns and blues, so started cutting 1.5 inch strips for yet another log cabin quilt. Yes I have the log cabin pattern on my brain.
I plan on having 4 'logs' on each side of this block, for a 10 inch block. This is what I have now to show you:
Just 2 rounds on each side but you see the look. I will not have a light/dark contrast but I am hoping for a rich look when I am done. More work will be done on these blocks later today.

Love the new project--log cabin and 1800s repros are favorites of mine too. I think you will definitely have a rich looking quilt.
I say anything that is started in December doesn't count :)
This one is going to be so rich in color. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
Beautiful and rich colors, It's going to be a lovely new project!
