Nubilous - the Layout

I've finished up the fourth round of logs/cornerstones

for my Log Cabin Loonies project named Nubilous

and laid out all twenty blocks on the design wall.

(click on the label at the end of this post

to read previous posts for this one)

This was the first version with grays vertically oriented

and greens on the horizontal - but given the inspiration

it made more sense to rotate each block 90 degrees

so the grays became the horizontal (sky) while

the greens (trees) became the verticals.

Many of the logs are segment-pieced lengths 

from the Dumpster Diving leftover boxes.

It feels good to use up so many of those bits and pieces.

Nubilous will become the third quilt top in my Etcetera series.

The twenty-block center will finish at 40" x 50"

but with the turquoise stop border and 

the birds/branches outer border,

the top should finish in the 50" x 60" range.

As soon as I finish the FMQ on Dumpster Diving 8 - Bella

I need to focus on getting three sets of blocks sewn together -

Drama Queen, Namaste, and now Nubilous.

(there was another delay as DH needed to 

tweak Max's timing just a bit more to eliminate the last of the

annoying but entirely predictable thread nest issues)

Namaste is to be younger son's 40th birthday quilt -

and that big day is quickly approaching.
