"Anything goes" log cabin project now a top

 Good day and welcome to my blog of quilty things.

This past week I picked up a project I started in Feb. 2025 - a set of log cabin blocks.  I used what I had available: mostly civil war reproduction fabrics but also leftovers from other projects.  Therefore, the title, Anything Goes.  

Start of project is described HERE.

The blocks finish at 10 inches square and my top now looks like this:


About 50 by 70 inches in size, plus a narrow border.

A close up:


And I am getting smarter:  I cut, pressed, and rolled the binding for this quilt.


It will have a label in that baggie too.  What project, size of project, length of binding, and date.

P.S. I saw this in a local used bookstore, in the quilting and crafts section:


Quilting is not for the weak!

Linking up with Monday Musings, Sew and Tell at Melva Loves Scraps, Wednesday Wait Loss, Put your Foot Down at the Quiltery, Nina-Marie, Finished or Not at Alycia Quilts, From Bolt to Beauty, Frederique at Quilting, Patchwork, Applique, Oh Scrap at Quilting is more Fun than Housework.

Beautiful log cabin block. And, I had a chuckle over the spineless quilt books. But I knew exactly what they were talking about. Smart move to make the binding once the top is finished. I may have to try that!
