Good Thursday morning everyone!!!
I'm so excited to have another recipe for the Bakeshop and I just have to say that it was amazing fun to work with the beautiful reds, creams and tans from the Midwinter Reds collection.
I think that one of the first blocks I ever made was a log cabin, so this project was certainly a "remember when" type of quilt. The paper piecing is something that I have been doing on and off for quite a number of years and some of these same shapes can be found in a couple of my older patterns that will soon be almost ten years old.
This is one of the featured quilts that we will be using for a workshop that is coming up at the end of October. There are close to 90 Canadian gals coming to join us in putting together a few versions of this design. We will be doing miniatures framed in barn board, an appliquéd version and quite a few breakout sessions to teach beginners the log cabin block; a paper piecing session and also an applique session. It's going to be a very fun and busy two days, but so worth it when we get to see what everyone comes up with at the end of each day.
I hope that you enjoy the "bakeshop" version of Down on the Farm and I would love to hear from you if you get a chance to make this project.
Happy Quilting!!

Love it! Could you put a photo of it on your website that shows the whole quilt? I have a different layer cake that I would like to use but need to make decisions on the center squares, etc.
What a fun project! I would come, but it's a very long way......*grin*
I saw this pattern on Moda's blog and wanted to tell you that it's absolutely adorable! Thank you for sharing with us!
It's so pretty and fun! Love it! Thanks for sharing it with us! I have Moda layer cakes bundles waiting for something to make... and I think this is what I needed to get me to use the fabric !

Your quilt is just beautiful! Such an ideal farm scene - I think it would take a whole team of landscapers to get mine looking like that!
