Built from strips of fabric sewn around a central square, the log cabin lends itself to an almost limitless range of arrangements, colours, shapes, and textures. Textile artist Catherine-Marie Longtin guides readers through designs ranging from classic interpretations to bold, graphic variations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCombining inspiration with practical instruction, the book begins with a showcase of the 100 block designs before providing step-by-step guidance for creating each one. Longtin explores how to develop a personal approach to colour, experiment with materials such as linen, and manipulate the basic structure through four-, three- and two-sided blocks, quarter circles, courthouse steps, rectangles, polygons, double strips, and cornerstones. Foundation piecing introduces further possibilities for adding texture and dimension.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA comprehensive block directory includes diagrams and measurements for each design, making the book both a practical reference and a source of inspiration.
