My Log Cabin quilt is finished, except for the label! It took me nearly 3 years to get it done and I am very happy!! The "logs" are 1/2" finished.
The binding is the same fabric as the backing.
As you know, I had lots of quilting issues, but finally got that straightened out and fixed all the rat's nests on the back.
Here's a close up of the quilting if you can see it. I posted this picture a week or so ago.
I also finished the Country Roads Quilt-a-long that Lori had. It is quilted and bound as well.
Oh, it feels so good to finish things - especially things that have taken "forever."
We even went to the coast one day this week. It's only about 50 miles from here. The Oregon coast is beautiful, but not as good for swimming as Florida. It was a cloudy day. We got to see some whales splashing in the water about 1/2 mile off shore!
I'm celebrating the finishes today!
Wow..What an Heirloom! beautiful Log Cabin..love all the neutrals & colors...raised hands & clapping for your finish.

Great finishes! I have yet to start Lori's quilt-a-long, though I picked up some fat quarters while we were shopping in Mac. The coast is always so beautiful, even when the weather doesn't cooperate.
