My goodness how fast a week goes by!It's time to post my 4th Saturday Sampler block already! Click here to read about this 2010 quilt project.
This week I decided to attempt another block from my Quiltmaker magazine. (Don't forget to sign up for their contest if you have a copy of the 100 blocks magazine - click here.)
I picked a paper pieced block this week and decided to trace the block pattern on freezer paper. I felt like Alice in Wonderland - my hands were too small or the block was too big! Something felt out of proportion, because I have recently been working on tiny 1" and 2" blocks and these blocks are 6 1/2", which felt enormous to me!
This week's block is called "Swedish Log Cabin" and the pattern is by Lorraine Olsen (on page 24 of the magazine).
