But just to be safe, I use a backing color that would look OK if it showed on the edge. Hope this helps.Sherrie Spanglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16439380401594187156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413060395202056662.post-23092718862595460422014-01-18T16:08:45.325-07:002014-01-18T16:08:45.325-07:00I love log cabin blocks!

In the past when I turned a quilt that way there always seems to be more fabric on the back.. vivianVivian Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15760364319705013669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413060395202056662.post-87829995869700275012014-01-18T08:05:04.093-07:002014-01-18T08:05:04.093-07:00I really love it!

This is also why I prewash fabric and us Retayne on hand-dyes and some batiks. Doesn't matter if you don't plan to ever wash a wall quilt. You never know when through blocking or some accident something will run due to moisture exposure.The Idaho Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979439849662755082noreply@blogger.com
