Happy Friday!!!! ( the LAST Friday of February!!!!)
Even though I have been on Vacation - you know I had to finish something before I left to make sure I could show off today!!!
This is an 1860's Log Cabin Quilt and I am in love with it!!!
This was a find by Deb!!! She found a bag of blocks in a Basement and they needed a LOT of work!!
She hand washed each one, and re-stitched the ones that were coming apart. then She set them in this setting!
its amazing!!
And that Cheddar - Swoon worthy!!! I like how the make kept the cheddar rows consistent - In my opinion it draws the quilt together!!
I did have to give it back, but I put a caveat on the invoice - if she ever doesn't love it anymore... call me first!!!
Now you all know what time it is right? FINISHED ( or not) FRIDAY LINK UP!!!!

Beautiful quilt, the colors are so vibrant!
Gorgeous quilt! Love everything about it! Looks like sunrise; that cheddar is perfect.
LOVE this! it is absolutely beautiful, and I love the HST as a center for the log cabins. How old do you think the blocks are?
I am so happy to be able to add my link to your linkup - it has been a long time since I posted. :)
That's a quilt with a lot of "wow" factor. The cheddar does really add that character. Deb did a great job salvaging the blocks, you wouldn't know they were that old.
That is a beauty, Alycia! The work that Deb put into those blocks to restore them is amazing. And your quilting adds so much. I love the cheddar, too! Happy Friday!
Wow! Beautiful quilt! I have never seen the 1/2 square in the center before either.
What a beauty of a quilt to find! How amazing those 1/2 squares centers are too! And what a wonderful job on the quilting you are doing, Alycia. All good stuff!
The Baptist fan quilting is perfect for this beautiful quilt.
Gosh that cheddar makes the quilt! Deb did an amazing job getting these blocks into a top. The maker would love that finish!
That is one fine treasure, love your BF quilting too1
Oh wow, what a very special quilt to get to be a part of. The HSTs as centers and cheddar are delightful details!
What a gorgeous quilt! I agree about the placement of the cheddar (and the pink beside it). It really draws the eye and unifies the quilt.
Hi Alycia, what a gorgeous quilt. I've always wanted to make a log cabin quilt with the dark and light. It's on my bucket list!
Ditto what everyone else said and I really liked looking at all the different fabrics!
What a find! It's a gorgeous quilt. I agree, that placement of the cheddar (and the pink beside it) really unifies these blocks.
What a great job bringing these blocks to life!!!! I have never seen hst's for centers either! Fun. The layout is superb.
It's pretty!
