Summer Flower Log Cabin Quilt

Hello again dear readers.......here is my newest version of my vintage log cabin quilt.....
....made this time with scraps of pastel pink, green and blue with plenty of low volume fabrics......and the all important red centre to symbolise the hearth and home.......
.....it reminds me of a summer flower meadow........
.....and also in the flower meadow is my new poppy seed packet cross stitch design....i love designing these little seed packets and stitching them up........
.....i loved hand quilting the log cabin quilt as well, such a restful peaceful kind of evening sewing.....
......the sun came back after the snow and the weather is definitely improving now.....here's lettuce the sugar bunny sitting on a quilt stack in the sunny sewing room....
.....today is st patrick's day and we have some pretty green versions of my little houses pincushions pattern to share.....the buttons were in a big jar from hobby craft stores.....
.........the little house fabric is by moda.......
.....also for today here's a picture of my green irish chain quilt.....all the patterns for the makes shown here are in my etsy shop link in sidebar..........
.......so wonderful to see the hedges filled with flowers, leaves and fresh growth......
........and flowers in my kitchen too.....pretty gifts from a lovely friend and a bunch of cheery rainbow tulips from the supermarket too.......

 ...........thanks for dropping  by dear readers......wishing you the joys of spring and lots of sunny days......thank you for your kind words.......take care lovelies........back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
