NEW: Log Cabin Block Colouring Pages

These Log Cabin Block Colouring Pages are a completely FREE download to help you make the most out of the wonderful Log Cabin quilt block.

If like me, you enjoy planning out your quilt projects, you are really going to appreciate these resources. By having a play with some coloured pencils you will be able to discover some of the design options that are possible with the classic Log Cabin quilt block. These Colouring Pages have been designed to help you do that very thing.

Log Cabin quilt blocks are pretty easy to make and will look good as part of a sampler quilt or when used just on their own, repeated several times over. You can create some really impressive designs by playing with the colours and prints that you are using. You will be surprised at some of the secondary patterns that seem to appear before your eyes!

Are you ready to explore your creative side? Click on one of the images or a ‘quick shop’ button below and a FREE printable is yours. You can then start to discover all of the design options possible when using the classic Log Cabin quilt block. I have three different versions of Log Cabin Colouring Pages available, ranging from the simple and classic to the more challenging. Each of the downloads features five different colouring grids to help you with your planning.

The Log Cabin quilt block is as old as it comes and there’s more than one way to make one. You can piece the traditional way or you can use Foundation Paper Piecing techniques.

The traditional piecing method is just great, but you do need to be super confident with your seam allowance. You really do need to be spot on, especially when it comes to the more detailed versions, such as the 13-piece or 17-piece log cabin. The more seams, the more room for error there is!

This is why I really love Foundation Paper Piecing. As long as you sew on the line, you can’t go too far wrong.

If you would like to try the FPP method then make sure that you check out my Log Cabin Block FPP Templates, there are three different versions to choose from (or buy all three!).
