Edith's Folded / Manx Log Cabin Quilt

This is the beautiful folded log cabin quilt made by Grandma Langille that Edith brought for show and share at our last Guild meeting.  I just love all the scrappy colours.  It inspired me to make two folded log cabin blocks but mine pale in comparison.

And here's a closeup

 Her quilt was made with approximately quarter inch folds where my two blocks were made with half inch folds.  Here's an even closer look at a block.  The dark and light choices of fabrics are very subtle when looking at only one block, but really show up seen from afar.

Thank you Edith for sending me pictures so I could share your beautiful quilt!
