Log cabin quilts are
a part of our culture. Log cabin quilts
are quintessential to American history. The popular
log cabin design starts with a center shape, most often
a red square. Moving outwards from the center, strips
of fabric are sewn along the sides of the square, in
color sequences that vary from light to dark. The blocks
thus formed can be set together in numerous and creative
ways. Log cabin quilts recall the history
of the civil war and the settling of the West.The basic
need for these quilts was to provide warmth. Gradually
they became a form of folk art reflecting the heritage
and roots of the people who made them,
No home is complete without at least a few Log
cabin quilts. These quilts have a cheerful,
folksy feel. Look for designs that have special meaning
or mark a memorable occasion. Barn raising for example
when settlers gathered to help a neighbor build his
home. National memories of typically American activities
are stitched into these quilts. Adults and children
will enjoy using them as colorful bedspreads and throws.
Let our Log cabin quilts bring new
warmth to your hearth. The red center square of a classic
log cabin design stands for the hearth, the focal point
in those early cabin homes. Lighter colors on one side
represent the sunny side of the house. Darker colors
represent the shady side. Our beautiful quilts will
