Stitching for Siblings Together in January

6 Jan

Today the children are back at school so the house is quiet, yesterday was a inset day for our school and it was a real bonus to have a calm day at home; they played with toys they had missed while on holiday which meant I had a bit of an opportunity to sew.

The priority was to get January’s bee block made for Siblings Together:

January Bee Block for #stqb 2015

It was pretty straightforward and Julie asked us not to sew the four blocks together as she will do that once they are all received.

I’d seen on IG a new qal kick off #scrappylogcabinqal and thought that it might be a good way to scrap bust and make another quilt for Siblings Together.  So I spent some time working through my scrap boxes and cutting 2.5″ strips:

I’m not sure what size blocks I’m going to make, I’m thinking of 12″ but will just get stitching and see it works out.

So my goal for the month is to make at least 12 scrappy log cabin blocks, although if I make them 12″ I will need approx 30!  If you fancy joining in check out the hashtag on IG and get stitching.

  1. Good luck! My scraps don’t really fit into log cabins unfortunately, since they’re usually pretty bitty, but I’m looking forward to seeing them all appear 🙂

  2. Oooo! Scrappy log cabins have such great promise! Can’t wait to see where this goes 🙂
