Have a Latte!! (or two)

Some of you don't know that coffee
is well....
One of my favorite things.

And this beautiful fabric from Clothworks
is right up my alley.

 
(Isn't so cute?  I just love the quotes!)
 
I always try something different
when I make a quilt -
A different technique,
maybe a different type of block. 
Well, I took the tradition log cabin block
that I have been wanting to try for ages
 
 
 

and made a bunch of strips
using my handy Accuquilt Log Cabin die...

 
 
played with it a bit .....



and
Came up with my new super power!!
COFFEE!! 





I was able to finish up a quilt top.

Thanks to Clothworks for being a great sponsor,
to the lovely Joan of MooseStach Quilting.

    Love the quilt. The red in the center really sets it off. I bought my fabric too soon because I couldn't find the red or I would have went for it!!

    I'm in love, I want this, I really really want it :) I'm so jealous, gotta make one, I totally love log cabins, they are my all time favorite piecing method, and you've incorporated it in a way that seems fitting.. Great Job!! Now seriously, if you ever decide you wanna give this up... I'm making the first offer.. !!
