Twisted log cabin block tutorial.

Finally the wonky log cabin block. To quote emeril lagasse i kicked it up a notch just taking the idea of the curvy log cabin and making it a little twisted. You saw this in my intro tutorial but look what happens when the same exact block is re colored with solid black or any other dark it pops. Next the twisted log cabin block.

And it provides a circular appearance that would be spectacular in a quilt. We ll eventually do a whole quilt out of this block in the next week or two but i wanted you to see this block now. This is different from the curvy log cabin. In this tutorial you ll find.

I also recommend foundation paper piecing for this block. The standard log cabin block is constructed by adding strips the logs one at a time around a centered square. While square blocks typically come to mind log cabin blocks can be square rectangular triangular diamond shaped twisted or even curved.
