Log Cabin # 2

Here's my progress so far on my second Log Cabin blanket:



This one is for my son. It is done in colors to match his room. I'm not too sure I'm totally happy with the way that it is turning out yet. I don't think the colors mesh together quite the way I wanted. Maybe I have too many colors going on at once? As it gets bigger and there are more repeats of the colors I am liking it more - so we'll see. :)

This is in Elann Sonata again.

I know some people have been keeping the stitches live rather than casting off and picking up. I haven't done that because I really like the "put together" effect you get when you bind off and pick up stitches. I think it mimics the feel of a quilted Log Cabin better.

Comments:
Oh I think it looks Great with the sofa!
 
Even if you don't like the colours it is going to look awesome in that room!
 
Please send log cabin to me. Love it!
 
Your log cabin is indeed lovely. The colors are wonderful.
 
It looks great! Very manly :-)
 
Yep - you get a ridge. That's part of what gives the blanket that Log Cabiny look and feel.

Thanks for the comments on the colors. I'm liking them more now that I have more repeats of each color.
