A sashed version of the string log cabin blocks. Rather than half light and dark, these blocks use mostly medium and dark fabrics and the sashing and border are cut 2.5 inches.

    Thanks so much for posting these patterns. I just love your log cabin at the top and decided to use up some of my scraps in blue and yellow to make a quilt. It is amazing how quickly they go together.. I have 30 blocks done and have been doing them in increments of 10…. around my 2 toddlers nap times the last week. Thanks again.
