Week 21

This is the 21st week of 2016, and I have just completed my 21st piece.  It is a Twisted Log Cabin, done in black and white.  I first tried to paper piece with the stabilizer as the foundation, onto which I had traced the pattern, but quickly found it to be too cumbersome, so I then printed the pattern onto typing paper, and pieced it that way.  After it was completed, I tore the paper away and glued the finished piece onto my stabilizer.  Much easier! 


I've done several twisted log cabins before, but always with gradated hand dyed fabrics; this is the first one I've done with prints.  It is a bit busy, but I think you can still see the twist in the colors.
