Log Cabin Wreaths
     
 
  Center Wreath
  The center wreath is double the size of the original pattern.
90" x 92"    

"I wanted to make a Christmas wreath quilt, using hundreds of pieces of colorful fabrics. I like to start with one pattern (the wreath block) and then design companion blocks to coordinate with it...the results are a surprise. The borders are made using a log cabin-like piecing, with hand quilted patterns in the white cotton fabric."

 

These blocks are machine-pieced and quilted. Then, I hand quilted patterns in the plain white blocks that are surrounded with log cabin-like piecing.
