so, here are the great tips that are contributing to my log cabin success. 1) the strip being added always goes right side up on the bottom (see bottom photo); hard to see here because the light is so...well, light! 2) the most recent strip is right side down going into the needle first (top photo). that's it....easy peasy. maybe this was widely known long before i learned it, don't know. it's the first time i became aware of these 2 simple rules. anyway, they might help you or not; all i know is they made it super easy for me to get this (should be) easy block right. **** last night started on the 2nd border of baptist fans...i am soo delighted with this project and how it's turning out. it's essentially a whole cloth quilt done in segments. inbetween i'm doing more purple strippies for orca bay. with 3 weeks left of the month, i have to get at least ONE of them done; goodness knows i've ooodles of time and no real excuses.
Thanks for sharing the tips, Grace. I am going to print them out and put them with my log cabin UFO (whose box I located) in the event I actually finish it someday! : )
