Curved Log Cabin Technique Sheet
DTEC33
$ 8.25
Add a little twist to your log cabin blocks with the Curved Log Cabin technique sheet! The block is made up of one center square with a series of narrow and wide logs sewn around the center square. Sounds easy, but if you have ever tried to make them, you know that it is tough to get them to come out the way you want them - nice and square. Our technique has you strip piece each round of oversized logs, then trim with the Tucker Trimmer III, which allows you to straighten up those edges before you sew the next round. You will make every block quickly, easily, and accurately.

This process is invaluable when you're making pinwheels or any block for your quilt in which you want all the blocks to "spin" the same direction. And just like all of our other techniques, the units are made slightly oversized so you'll be able to trim them down to perfection using the Tucker Trimmer.
