Hidden Log Cabin After Christmas QAL

 This quilt along is taking place on one of my favorite I.O. quilting groups .... Stashbusters.  We will work on this project together, using stash and putting our own spin on it.  This idea is a spin-off from a youtube video  by Moonkin Stitchery  

(10806) Hidden Log Cabin | Jelly Roll Quilt Pattern | Layer Cake Quilt Pattern | Log Cabin Quilt Pattern - YouTube

Of course, I couldn't resist cutting fabric in preparation for the quilt along.  It took me 3 afternoons.  I cut from a layer cake for the prints and half yard cuts for the cream backgrounds.  I want to make a twin, so I need at least 80 blocks.  I prepped the entire layer cake which made for 96 blocks, so I will have extra.  The extra blocks could go on the back or into a topper.... so many options.  I used my stripology rulers for the strip cutting and cross cut units which was very efficient and little waste.

So this is all I have to share this week ....................

This is stacks of 8 each


These pieces are the background/light side
