The recipient (Debbie) picked the pattern/layout and size (queen) and her MIL told me what colors she generally likes (deep reds, golds, etc). I took that info and designed the blocks and final quilt on my own. Then I spent weeks and weeks collecting all kinds of reds and creams, as well as the gold marble-y fabric I used for the center squares. All told, there are sixty-four 10" (finished) log cabin blocks, with a total finished quilt size of 90x90. I'm kinda proud of this one... almost hate to give it up.Leave me a comment and let me know what you think!

Wow, that's gorgeous!! I can see why you're proud. I've been thinking about learning how to quilt - the math of it kind of calls to me but the part about choosing coordinating fabric scares me. :)
W...O...W... Just absolutely gorgeous!
You did a wonderful job. It's so beautiful. You should be very proud of your work. I knew you could do it.
This is gorgeous! Don't you just love the process of picking out the fabrics that will go together just right? So much fun. But you really made this one excellent!
You should be proud of it! It is gorgeous!
