Remember this sampler that I was taking with me on our little trip to Washington. Well, this is as far as I have gotten.
I have discovered that I am quite slow when it comes to crewel work. That, and I am learning each stitch as I do them. The only stitch work I have ever done in the past is cross stitch and french knots. But it's coming along.
This is a log cabin quilt top my mom made (I think) 30 years ago. I don't remember her doing any type of quilting while growing up. Just little things like sewing on scout badges and hemming clothes. But I love this little quilt top! My mom gave it to me to finish (sandwich, quilt, and bind.)

I think it's very neat that your mom gave you a log cabin quilt to play around with. Your crewel work is just gorgeous, and I love that shade of green. It's perfect!
Thanks for sharing. I hope you have a fantastic week.
Beautiful needlework! I think finishing an old project of your mothers, especially a log cabin quilt would be so fun.
