I finished my first quilt project of 2013 yesterday. Stray Threads quilt guild is having a block lottery this week. Last month they gave use three pieces of fabric and instructions for an 11 inch log cabin block. I fussed over my fabrics and then went to buy too much more. I cut the fabric fairly acurately and my seams were consistant. The big surprise came when all the pieces were pressed out the block is spot on 11 inches. Will wonders never cease?
