Wonky Log Cabin Quilt Block on Muslin Foundation

A quick tutorial on how I make a wonky log cabin quilt block on a muslin foundation. The block made to be sewn into a drawstring knitting project bag. You can find the tutorial for that on my blog at agilejack.wordpress.com/2020/...

    I found this when searching for something else -- ahh, the endless rabbit hole of KZread! BEAUTIFUL block, and I'm already thinking 1. I have way more KF fabrics than I'd need for a whole quilt of these beauties, and 2. some of KF black-and-white fabric for sashing would be perfect. Thank you!!

    If you're making a quilt, there's no need to use the muslin base. I have a tutorial using batiks and no muslin. Check it out here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d6yX09ylfNazfrw.html

    This is a good explanation of a wonky log cabin block. I also have an arc ruler and have never used it to cut fabrics. I will now use it for a 8” square, thanks for that tip. ❤

    I use Pellon sf 101(sale priced, instead of the now $$ muslim) by cutting the pellon by square, triangular or other shape then stitching crumb fabric or orphan blocks to the adhesive side...I do not press until the pellon shape is overcovered with fabric...then I press and square up. The pellon takes the place of light batting for a summer quilt....and also hides the many seams of the crazy patch ....the pellon is flexible and lighweight to stitch the blocks together and then I add the backing fabric and binding.

    Hi Aj, Hello from Brookings!! I LOVE this block and your tutorial for this and for the bag; it gave me an idea about using a wonky block to be a part of a wine bag!! :D Now if I just had more KF fabric!! I did just join a club that I think I found the link for on or near one of your blog pages and just got my first delivery of 5 1/2 yards! Oh, I ordered 5 yards of KF's Orchids for the back of a quilt with KF fabric, but I love it SO much, I'm going to do a One Block Wonder with it. :D Signed - another profanity using KF loving quilter! Thanks for the inspiration.

    If I was making these blocks for a quilt, I would NOT use the muslin backing. If I was making this block to build into a bag, I would use the muslin. It's all a personal choice. You don't have to use the muslin at all. I just like a little more structure and strength if something will be part of a bag.

    Why use a muslin carrier for the strips? Is it just for stability?

  • @agilejack1

    @agilejack1

    2 жыл бұрын

    You can certainly make this block with or without the muslin. But I was making this for my drawstring knitting project bag and this block serves as one side of the zipper pocket, so the muslin adds stability for that function. I made a quilt with blocks like this out of batiks and I didn't use the muslin backing. No need to if you're making these blocks for a quilt. It would just add unnecessary bulk and not much function.

    I get a more precise 8 inch block if I trim it down. Plus, I don't have to sew precisely if I'm going to square it up. I don't enjoy all that precision piecing. So I like making it wonky and then trimming it square. Just more fun for me.
