Log Cabin - Courthouse Steps
Rachel H. Standley
Plattville, Iowa
1860 - 1890
68" x 78"
Isn't this an interesting one? In a sea of solid colors, there are a few blocks made with prints. It is a rather striking contrast.

Log Cabin - Courthouse Steps
Marenza Hill Nye
Foster, Rhode Island
1870
65" x 65"
Another Courhouse Steps in welcoming warm colors. This one is much more traditional in color and block placement than the previous one. I really like it.

Log Cabin - Light and Dark
Sarah Ohmart Traylor
East Frok Township, Illinois
1840
71" x 82"
Isn't this a pretty one? I love the coral color! And the fabrics are primarily wool. What a delightful quilt for winter snuggling.

Log Cabin - Pioneer Block
Clara Chase
1875-1900
78" x 80"
I've never heard of a Pioneer Block Log Cabin. I'm assuming it refers to the last rows on the blocks used in such a way as to create the window pane appearance. It's interesting.
