I am so very grateful for this month's simpler block. I enjoyed cutting strips from my fun stash of low volume prints. All 20 complete, even though photo is cut off. Now I can go back and get to work on last month's blocks. I have only bundled combinations of fabrics so far. These will most likely go into a month 13, 14.... But I did finish up a few other projects this month!

Here are 4 of my log cabin blocks for this month. I went through my stash and cut 1 1/2” WOF strips. Instead of chopping them up into all the different lengths for the logs, I left them in long strips, added strips to the 2 1/2” square, and trimmed off the excess length. Saves time and is no problem. Like Barbara B., I sewed two at a time. They are so pretty!

I sewed the center section together and the outer sets with half circle fans. I made 16 log cabins and will wait to decide what to do with the corners of the log cabin sections until after I do the applique/embroidery. I really want to incorporate the meadow fabric. Thank you, Barbara for all the blog information and Facebook live recordings. Thank you to all the forum posters. I nearly gave up on month 3!

For month 4, I took applique blocks from another BOM that I decided not to finish, cut them up to yield the most motifs that I could reuse for this project. I also added a separate bird block that was a small project from the threadhouse taster weekend.
I used an alternate block that I invented for month 3 as I found the pattern block too frustrating.

Jeanne, Great idea, Are all your appliqués on other background fabrics already. I was thinking it
would be nice to put the big birds that run into the seam allowance over 2 blocks, to give them
more space, but if they are already prepared on the background, you could not do that. I like
looks of the more realistic appliqués. Also like your variation blocks with the half square triangles.

The birds and flowers are perfect. I like the alternative block you invented.
