I am happy to report that I have been
given the opportunity by Fons and Porter to review their Log Cabin Quilt e-book. I received the book today and am
quite impressed with this publication.
It provides a variety of illustrated examples of traditional log cabin, courthouse
steps and chevron blocks with layout options.
Strip widths needed for block sizes that range from 4 ½” to 13 ½” are
provided in easy to follow charts, as are color coded and numbered assembly
diagrams. Moreover, materials needed for
a full quilt are clearly listed, along with cutting and finishing
directions. Thread types, quilting
pattern suggestions, and even a trapunto feather design that approaches a
tutorial in itself, are explained in pictorial detail.
I am not only impressed with the
clarity of the directions but also with the very valuable tips so that a
finished log cabin quilt will be picture perfect. There is also a tremendous, step by step illustrated
description of how to end binding in a way that is “lumpless”—almost
invisible. This is the best description
of how to do this that I have ever seen and I will definitely follow this
process when I bind the quilt that I am presently working on.
Great thanks to Fons and Porter for
the opportunity to review this e-book.
