Curved Log Cabin Quilt

For 2026's National Quilt Day, the South African Quilters' Guild choose the curved log cabin pattern.  I have been wanting to stitch this pattern ever since watching Donna Jordan's video using a jelly roll.  Using one of the roll's my husband bought me for my birthday in December and some prints from my stash with cream for the background, I started stitching the 16 blocks required.  And this is the completed quilt.

The quilting was done by starting off with a spiral machine embroidery design in the center and then just continue stitching round and round which I think compliment the rounded effect of the log cabin blocks.

The spiral machine embroidery design is available in my shop here.

Below is a close-up of the background fabrics showing the different prints used.

Donna's free pattern is available here for download.

I tried to finish this quilt also in time for Bloemshow, but with working overtime wasn't able to.  I used all the practice stitch outs done for the sets for sale in my shop and stitch them together using the rag quilt technique.  The blocks was embroidered on scuba fabrics.

For the back 3 cotton knit prints was used creating a soft and snug quilt.
