Maple leaf blocks at the center of a quarter log cabin block form this design from All People Quilt. This is a hanging size (35"x44") but of course it would be easy to add more blocks and/or add more logs to make a bigger project.
This block is an optical illusion block that makes it look like ribbon wrapping round a column using HST's and rectangles.
It is by a lovely lady to whom I subscribe on YouTube Brenda @ Conquering Mount Scrapmore who talks to groups for free and offers several FREE blocks each and every week (most which I think are her own designs...) along with some sew alongs in the past. The video description contains all the cutting instructions. She definitely deserves more subscribers than she has!
Apologies Brenda I did a screenshot to get a closer look at the block :)
Houses with a small log cabin border and pinwheel cornerstones. This project from All People Quilt is 54" but could easily be made larger by adding more "logs".
This is based upon a 4x4 grid and is made from simple HST's and squares. On it's own it is not very impressive I'll admit but add more squares in the same colours and set them side by side with no sashing and a secondary pattern emerges.
