Log Cabin Block

October 29, 2022 By A Spoonful of Sugar - Leave a Comment

Introducing the Log Cabin Foundation Paper Piecing Quilt Block (FPP). I am so excited to add to my range of basic, beginner friendly foundation paper piecing quilt block patterns. I have had so many requests for these over the years and I am so pleased to be able to establish a range of affordable FPP patterns (around the cost of a cup of coffee!) that you can use in your next project.

Like all of my FPP quilt blocks, the Log Cabin Block includes 5 sizes – 2 inch, 3 inch, 4 inch, 5 inch, and 6 inch. The templates are available in both Letter format and A4 size to suit your home printer. Here in Australia we use A4 sized paper, but USA uses Letter Sized paper. By using the correct paper and printer type for the template, ensures that they are printed accurately and are true to size.

I love nothing more than using my colour coded scraps to make this sweet mini log cabins. The log cabin blocks shown here are 3 inch size. They would be fun to incorporate into a wide range of projects such as mini quilt, potholder, placemat, table runner and more!

New to foundation paper piecing? Don’t worry I’ve got your covered. The pattern includes 2 pages of illustrated instructions to teach you the basics of foundation paper piecing.

Also included is a colouring sheet to help you plan the colour layout on your next project.

You can find the Log Cabin Block in our Pattern Store and Etsy Shop for immediate download. Happy sewing!

Maybe it's just me, but I think every sewist has a Maybe it's just me, but I think every sewist has a piece of fabric they're a little afraid to cut into.

You know the one.

The fabric that's too pretty, too special, or waiting for the perfect project.

I've certainly been guilty of saving beautiful Liberty fabrics for "someday". But over the years I've realised something:

The joy isn't in owning the fabric.

The joy is in turning it into something you'll use, display, gift, or enjoy every day.

Some of my favourite sewing projects began with a Liberty fabric I was hesitant to cut into. Looking back, I've never regretted using it. The only fabrics I've regretted are the ones that sat folded away for years waiting for the perfect moment.

Beautiful fabric deserves to become something beautiful.

This Mini Drawstring Bag is perfect for Halloween treats, small gifts, sewing notions, or party favours. The roomy base helps it stand upright, while the drawstring closure keeps everything tucked safely
inside.

Best of all, it's a fantastic scrap-busting project. You'll only need four layer cake squares and a length of cord, and most sewists can finish one in under an hour.

I stitched this spooky version using Halloween prints, but the pattern works beautifully for Christmas, birthdays, Easter gifts, and everyday storage too.
