Log Cabin with a twist

By Denise Russell

This block is one of four needed to complete a wall hanging called Cosmos, designed by George Siciliano. It is a wonderful twist on the log cabin block. Once you get the hang of it, it comes together fast. Fabrics are sewn onto a special foundation paper.

I took a one-day class with George and Virginia Siciliano last September in Provo, UT, during the Utah Quilt Guild show. They are awesome (and fun) teachers!

I usually finish all work I learn in classes, and this is the one I am yet to finish… The colors and fabrics are great to work with, the pattern is well written and easy to follow. I just need to make the time, as once I start on it again, I will not stop until I am done!

George’s designs are amazing, and Virginia’s quilts (and hand quilting) are exquisite. You’ve got to check them out!

    Love log cabins, especially the older ones….they have so much more character than the ones built today. garden cabins
