I finished my Log Cabin Star table topper. It measures approximately 36" X 31". I loved making this. Once I figured out the directions, it was easy to sew together. It's a little different to have 60 degree angles on either side of a strip but it works out very nicely. I loved picking out batiks. Next time, I would place the strips a little differently. I would make the medium strips in the order of lightest to darkest. I didn't differentiate them this time. I didn't even think of it! I would like to make a quilt using this pattern and all my scraps. I'm hunting for a pattern.
I'm so happy to show you the middle intersection. Everything lined up very nicely the first time I sewed that middle seam. I usually have to rip out and fiddle with it but this one was good after one try! That doesn't always happen to me. It was a nice surprise!!
I love everything about this topper, Rosemary. Great job, especially on the center.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jeanna! I hate that the center has 6 seams meeting but this one was easy! Nice change!!
DeleteBeautiful finish--and those seam crossings came together perfectly--how neat!! Nice job Hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julierose! It's unusual that I didn't have to keep resewing that intersection. Kind of nice!!
