Fairy Cabin Free Quilt Pattern by Natalie Crabtree
Fairy Cabin uses four oversized rectangular log cabin blocks to display Fantasy prints alongside a contrasting Artisan Cotton fabric. Long strips build outward from small rectangular centers, with the print order changing between the two block arrangements. Alternating those blocks in a two-by-two layout creates the finished quilt center without a separate outer border. The quilt measures 56 by 68 inches, and the directions provide the strip order and pressing direction for each block type.
