I’ve been working on a few Log Cabin blocks with my local Richmond Modern Quilt Guild. I LOVE these blocks!!! I was just kind of free- styling with these and did solids on one side and prints on the other. I am really liking how it turned out and it has me thinking about doing a Modern Log Cabin quilt!

I am using Twenty Three by Cosmo Cricket for Moda.

So what do you think….Modern Log Cabin Quilt Along???? I think Modern and Traditional options would be nice…Let me know if you are feeling it:)

Keep it Sassy♥

Margaret’s Hope Chest

Charity Quilt Blocks!

This weekend me and my fellow Sassy Quilter’s (from my quilt guild) made blocks to donate to Margaret’s Hope Chest. Margaret’s Hope Chest is a non-profit organization that was born out of tragedy, the senseless death of 80 year old Margaret Herrema. Her granddaughter started it as a blend of two passions in her life – quilting and helping spread God’s hope in a broken world. They use quilts to reach out and help others. There are several way you can help here if you are interested. Just recently they were asking for donated log cabin quilt blocks which they will make into quilts. My guild has lots of beginners, so this seemed like a great project that wasn’t too overwhelming.

Crazy Mom Quilts made a scrappy log cabin tutorial to use for the donated blocks here. Fun and easy!

We made 21 in all! I got to use up some of my Fandango scraps and many of the girls got to learn how to make a new block! These are going towards “A Mothers Hope”, a program for mothers with post-partum depression.

If you think you would like to help,follow their blog here. We are looking forward to helping again. And a big thanks to a wonderful follower, Lea, for letting me know about this great opportunity:)
