Hexagon Log Cabin Quilt Block


"A variation on a traditional log cabin quilt block pattern. This huge quilt block is part of my Scrap Blocks Quilt Along and is a more structured version of my improv hexie log cabin quilt block which I have shared here before. This version uses more uniform 2.5" strips so you can get rid of all of those leftover jelly roll strips and other fabric scraps. I made this block with rainbow colors but you can easily adapt it to loads of different color schemes."
