WIP Wednesday #32

Hit it ...New projects:We Can Do It! Skill Builder Sampler Quilt-AlongThis QA features three blocks per month, each one selected to teach certain quilting skills. It's a quilt class and a quilt-along, two for the price of one. Perfect for beginners or those who just want to brush up (click here for more info). Our first block was this basic log cabin.I think I've already mastered the skills being taught here—accurate cutting and a 1/4" seam. But would you believe I've never made a log cabin block like this? Nope. I've made plenty of wonky, drunk-love-style blocks (like this one, this one, and this one), but never a good old-fashioned l.c. And this is exactly why I wanted to do this quilt-along. I taught myself to quilt almost entirely by reading blogs. While it's a fun and effective way to learn, I'm guessing I've missed things here and there. : ) Or maybe, just maybe, I'm doing a few things "wrong." Since Leila's quilt-along is as close as I'm likely to get to a basic quilting class, it seems like time well-spent.Ongoing projects:Warm Cool Quilt-Along266 HSTs, sewn, pressed, and trimmed.
