Technique Sheet-Traditional Log Cabin by Studio 180 Designs
Technique Sheets by Studio 180 are a fabulous way to learn more than just the basics. Each sheet is dedicated to a particular tool and shows a new way to use it!
This particular sheet shows you how to make PERFECT log cabin blocks using the Tucker Trimmer III tool.
Quilters love log cabin blocks. A Log Cabin block consists of a center square with a series of "logs" sewn around all four sides of the square. Sounds easy, but anyone who has tried to make them knows they are a challenge to get sized perfectly. Our technique has you strip piece each round of oversized logs, then trim after each round and once again at the end. The final trim assures your finished block is the correct size. A beloved technique made even better. What’s not to love!
