Snake River Log Cabin

This big, beautiful, bright log cabin quilt (Pattern called Snake River) was pieced by Christine Heath.  It's a large quilt (95x113) and heavy because of all the seams.  Fun colors!

 Here is the center.

Straight lines were quilted over the green part of the log cabin blocks.  

The pink and white squares were SID (Stitched-in-ditch).

Thanks Christine for letting me quilt this beauty!

Snake River

I love this Snake River Log Cabin quilt.  It's from Judy Martin’s Log Cabin Quilt Book.  The fabrics are orientals with neutrals.  Pieced by Jodie Nidey.   

 All the quilting was done freehand.  Feathers are quilted in the light areas.  Lots of SID around the red squares, dark fabrics and in the borders.

 Lines make a nice contrast to the curvy feathers and allow some relief, so everything isn't quilted down. 

 The center has a curvy feather.

 

 

 Here's a corner.

 A close up - SID  makes the red and the border fabrics pop.  Double lines to mimic the lines I quiltd in the body of the quilt.

Here is a cute Trip Around the World.  Pieced by Becky W.   I quilted a separate feather border and a cute flower motif in the center of the quilt.  You can see the quilting on the back of the quilt - a tone on tone white fabric.

Here is a log cabin quilt.  Pieced by Beth H. for a guild challenge.  It is a small throw. 

Log Cabin Quilt

This is a wonderful memory quilt, pieced by Joan Dolinar.  It has log cabin blocks, set in a traditional barn raising style.  The pictures are of her daughter, from her wedding, to her family.

 I did a free-hand feather in the "light" side of the log cabin block and SID in the dark.  I used Wool batting, which makes it a bit loftier and the pictures stand out as well as the log piecing.

 On the table...

 This is the border. 

 I put a frame around each photo, then SID around each photo.

 Borders, view from the back.
