Trying to get as many pictures done as possible before the Carolina Patchworks VP of Quilt-Holding-Upping leaves for a business trip.  I guess I don’t pay well enough and he must work elsewhere?  Hrumph…

Delicate florals and orderly rows of roses in soft pastels get the wacky treatment in this off-the-wall take on a traditional log cabin pattern. But rather than being jarring, this combination of subdued and modern works together, with the almost organic rings breathing life into the airy springtime colors.

No. 004 — Off Your Rocker Wacky Log Cabin Quilt Pattern

One glance and you’ll see that this traditional log cabin quilt isn’t quite … right. Perhaps it’s been built on shaky ground, or perhaps it’s spiraling up from a looney animated world into our own, but either way, this new spin on an old favorite is a lot of fun! Just choose twenty different fat quarters — be they bold and modern, subdued and traditional, or with a wacky personality of their own — slice and dice them a bit, and create one of the curviest quilts you can make while sewing only straight lines! Finished quilt measures 53″ x 66″.

A custom request through Etsy.  I’ll have another similar one in the shop in the next week or two and then a different Christmas design sometime in October.

Off Your Rocker Wacky Farmer’s Market Log Cabin Quilt.

This colorful quilt glows with a cheerful summertime vibe. Playful shades of red, green, purple, blue and pink from Sandi Henderson’s Farmer’s Market collection brighten up the not-quite-traditional log cabin pattern, creating a lap quilt at home in any sunny setting.

A pattern will be available for this quilt starting September 29.
