Midnight In The City Quilt

 I've always had a fascination with

Log Cabin Quilts

The simple

"picture frame"

style of block 

is usually easy to spot,

and I've seen hundreds of variations.

 That's why I was 

taken by 

delightful surprise

when I had an up close view

of 

Midnight In The City

by Linda Matteotti

at the

AQG Show

 As I approached this quilt, I was first drawn to Linda's 

impressive machine quilting

and bright color combinations 

set against the black background.

 And then, as I looked even closer 

I noticed the entire quilt was composed of

Log Cabin blocks!

Can you see this repeated image in the quilt?

Well done!

Even the stars in the sky

are set at the edge of the 

Log Cabin square.

"Inspired by *Flavin Glover,

this quit is made up of 224 blocks.

I designed it using EQ Software.

Each log cabin block is 

foundation pieced."

*Flavin Glover

is known for her 

pictorial Log Cabin quilt designs

that often feature homes. 

And Linda's original design

won an Honorable Mention ribbon.
