Katie's Miniature Log Cabin

Last Wednesday, I discussed the diamond log cabin and then I thought maybe I should back up a bit and discuss the log cabin as this is the origin of the Diamond.  I made a little mini for my daughter a few Christmas's back out of colourful fabric and paper piecing, a pic is below. 

I was also playing around a bit in EQ7 and "designed" the quilt below:

Log Cabin, Traditional Setting

Then I decided to play with it and juggle the blocks around:

Same quilt but blocks are moved around!

What is a log Cabin Block without a log cabin?

Love the central focus, don't you?

 ..and lest we forget...Today is Remembrance Day here in Canada and I think fondly of my Grandfather and his dedication to service for our Country while overseas.  Please take time today to remember and pay respect to our Veterans who have and are serving our country.
