This week I have been working overtime on my Island Batik log cabin quilt. My day to share is Feb 22nd and I realized I forgot to untick scaling in the printer settings. Some of my blocks are 1/2″ too small, here are just a few blocks I need to remake
Work has begun on my IBA log cabin challenge for February. For the background of my quilt I have chosen fondant and muslin fabrics, both Island Batik Foundations.

Does anyone remember Room 222?
I’m about to cut into a colorful bundle of fabric called Woodstock. The first Island Batik blog hop begins next month and the challenge is a log cabin quilt. Look at those peace signs!
My first box arrived a couple of weeks ago and keeping its contents a secret until now was not easy. Finally, all is revealed in the post below and I hope you’ll follow along throughout the year to see how I use them.

The first Island Batik Challenge of the year will be a Log Cabin quilt and blog hop using one the soon to be released fabric collections. Because I’ve already made 3 of my Log Cabin Tree of Life quilts it’s time to come up with a new design. Sooo, my mind is on overtime trying to outdo the Tree of Life pattern. The first IB box of the year is scheduled to be delivered today, so I’d like to make a design decision before Friday.

This is my second year participating and again I have chosen our veterans as my charity. My goal is to cover as many Vietnam Vets in my area as possible, before they’re gone. Last year I awarded Dan with a quilt I made from the AccuQuilt tumbler and star applique dies.
organize, organize, organize, I’m getting close to being very happy with my space. There are more lights to hang, getting wires under control, and lots of organizing. With all of the storage space I am totally overwhelmed but thinking ahead. Remember those kitchen cabinets I told you about that were left in the home when we bought it? The over head cabinets are being used for AccuQuilt dies, you can see one in the photo below, the rest are under my quilt frame. Then there are the tall cabinets which is great for bolts of fabric. If I decide to keep them they will eventually be painted white because as you can see, I have enough natural wood around me.
