Today is quilting Monday. Each Monday here in Dhahran the quilt guild has their weekly meeting. Each week it is something different. Because I was thinking about quilting I thought I would share the scrapbook pages I created for our Log Cabin quilt day.
The Dhahran quilt guild had a Log Cabin in a day quilt day and I attended. The idea was to take home a finished quilt top or almost finished. I must admit I did not get mine done. We started too early in the morning for me and those of you who know me know I don't really wake up until at least 10am even if I am up. So 2 hours after the class started I woke up and finally started to sew correctly. I enjoy attending guild activities because of the social aspects as well as the creative outlet. I must admit picking out and purchasing fabric that go together is my favorite part of quilting so I have lots of quilts waiting to be made in my closet.
At this class I loved how different the quilts turned out. I wanted mine to be more traditional colors since this was my first Log Cabin quilt. I helped Lyneth pick out her blue and gold fabrics and she wanted bold colors because she has two traditional log cabin quilts she has already done. Just like scrapbooking colors tell part of the story in your quilt.
This scrapbook page was created with the Sweet Stitches DSP paper by Stampin' Up! and Sew Suite stamp set. I also used Stampin' Up!'s Empire Alphabet Upper stamp set. I have this set in the clear mount so I could put all the letter on one acrylic block and stamp them together. This is especially nice when you are stamping the same words over and over again.
