Lovely card ! In quilting the log cabin block traditionally represents a log cabin with a fire in the fireplace , so the centre square is red or orange then one side is all lights and the other side is dark because the fire is lighting up one side of the cabin , and yes the strips represent the logs of the walls . But obviously people don't stick with the traditional way and that's what makes it exciting . I love your making quilt blocks .

[@angelistorres116]

I am a quilter and I fell in love with your first video of the quilt cards. I have a shipment of embossing plates, ink and stamps so I can make these cards to gift with the quilts I make. 💗💗💗

[@DonnaJo3452]

What a wonderful idea!

[@sharondipity152]

I'm enjoying these quilt card videos so much! Your enthusiasm is contagious!

[@sharonmurray9135]

I was just thinking today of how to do that Log Cabin quilt block, and here I look tonight and you are doing one! I love this block. My friends and I met yesterday and made some quilt cards from your last video. So, I am going to keep going. We made some Valentine cards in a quilt card, and it was cute. Thank you, Maymay. I love it.

[@eclaws13]

As soon as I saw the square of the strips I knew that you were making a log cabin. And then when I saw your color choices it made me smile. Those are the same colors that I used for a log cabin quilt for my mother years ago.

[@patrobinette3521]

🤣☺️🇳🇺💛💛♥️🇹🇿💽

[@melissazabower339]

You can make a 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 square card and still put it in the usual A2 envelope. The post office doesn't care that the card doesn't fill it. 😀

[@DonnaJo3452]

Yep, I’ve pointed that out too!

[@janetphelps6879]

I used A2 envelope and glued the inside edge to 'hug' the square card so it stayed on place.

[@melissazabower339]

That's a great idea! Did you have to do anything different on the front, or did you just address it before you put the card in the envelope?

[@lottiehuntsman2387]

I love the way you did the log cabin quilt card tonight. It's so pretty. Love your videos.

[@sheilabrady3725]

I had to watch the replay. My grandmother made lots of log cabin quilts and pillows. Precious memories! I plan on trying to quilt when I retire this year. We have a group of ladies that meet at church on Thursday mornings to hand quilt tops that have been donated. I hope they can teach me soon!

[@JaneLambert]

I"m loving the quilt cards

[@ladonnahallgamble1328]

You go May May I’m loving it. I’ve always wanted to learn to quilt so now this getting closer to my dream. I feel so accomplished! Thanks my friend. Keep’em coming!

[@donnaroberts9124]

Watching on the repeat. Loving all of the quilt ideas.

[@lizwarnke4689]

I quilt and I've gotta say, I LOVE this! The embossing is fantabulous! I've gotta do this!

[@cynthiadeslauriers2978]

❤ I really enjoy the quilt cards …. I’m basically new to both card crafting AND quilting…. I wish making quilts went as fast as this.

[@sandybaughman5597]

Love this. Log cabin is my favorite quilt pattern. Please do more.

[@lauramartin7300]

My first quilt was at a sewing center class and it was a queen size double Irish chain. Was a blast. This was years ago. You'll have great fun.

[@karenboyd6293]

You mentioned people leaving because they didn't like the video. I sometimes leave early because I liked it but didn't need to finish it to understand what I needed. I probably will not watch this to the end, but I enjoyed it and left a thumbs up.

[@olderendirt]

I have made at least 5 log cabin quilts of various sizes and had thought about making paper cards in the same pattern so this was perfect. I've never quilted them. I use embroidery floss and tie them in the middle square. Thanks for sharing this. The paper is really pretty, too.

[@tracytracy622]

My first Big Shot broke after over 20 years' service. I called my local craft store, they had one left in stock and put my name on it. But my husband had the car. I was working on a project requested by a friend and felt the time pressure. Impatient while I waited for him to come home, I grabbed my rolling pin and tried to die cut without a Big Shot..... I chipped my rolling pin, which was handed down to me by my grandmother. I cried for a minute, then found other things to do until my husband came home. I had my new Big Shot that same afternoon!! After that dilemma, I wouldn't be brave enough to try to emboss with a rolling pin. I think if my new Big Shot (now three years old 🤣) breaks, I'll just go out for a long walk until I can get another! 😁

[@TFoley715]

OH MY! The number of 6x6 pads I have is about to be used!!!! Thanks so much for the FUN! video :)

[@lauramartin7300]

Log cabin was to be my first quilt cause we built a log home. But I did a double Irish chain quilt. Love you guys!! Always make me laugh. Thanks for all you do.

[@deannaelsen4665]

Thank you for this idea I got a lot of cardstock for scrapbook like you that you just had and I also quilt so thank you very much for the cute little idea can't wait to make them have a great day God bless. 🙏👍🐈💞

[@lizettakanehl3808]

I love this. I have made small wall quilts. But this just takes things to a whole different level. So many squares and options. Thanks.

[@judibradshaw1948]

Watching replay but it’s still worth it! Love your quilt cards!!

[@stephaniamalenfant8659]

I for one love, love, love this and all the other ones!!

[@cindyxci]

A variation you could do with log cabin is courthouse steps. It’s made with strips but just put together in a different way. There are other variations where the strips are various sizes and shapes which makes it more modern than classic

[@albertamariejameson8255]

Maymay, fyi hand quilting means taking the full quilt top, batting and backing; put in a quiltinf frame and hand stitch the quilting. Takes a long long time😊 I am 79 and have only hand stitched one quilt. I send mine to a long armer too 😁

[@DonnaJo3452]

My grandmother and her friends would hand stitch the blocks too!

[@jennyberryman1818]

I have really enjoyed making the quilt cards. I really like this idea of using the scraps. I found a 6x6 paper pack in my old scrapbooking supplies. I never used it because I didn't know what to do with it. Now I do!!

[@suepearson7062]

I am LOVING the quilt cards!!! Thank you sooo much! More please!!

[@jackie-dbdstitchart4969]

Love this idea. I am typically a quilter, so I love this as an extension of my quilting. 💞💞

[@RachelRamey]

This is a good use for those strips you cut off the edge of the 12x12 paper (where it has the designer info) if the pattern extends to the edge.

[@jo-annkiss9602]

Such beautiful cards.

[@suebuckhorn3211]

I am late seeing this video but I am loving your quit cards. Keep them coming.

[@lindalincks6187]

Just put your square card in a regular envelope. No extra postage needed! This works for any shape card! Just keep your dimensions compatible with a standard envelope size and you are good to go!! Love the log cabin design!! Thank you!!

[@tammyislandsewingtutor]

I thought this was a fabric quilting show. I don’t do paper. Yet! Watching replay. I love it! I could do this 😂❤🎉

[@carolbatchelor5855]

The embossing really makes it look like fabric. These are such fun! I'm excited to make some of these!!

[@ksbrook1430]

We have a small card-making group at church. I think we will enjoy trying this. Thank you!

[@PaperToPetals]

Ok I’m hooked! So cute! Thank you.

[@nancycollins8824]

I love it!! Thank you for sharing!

[@lesliewoolsey]

I love this card! I just wanted to add an alternative idea for the base. I am one of those who has trouble cutting straight across, so on my four inch base, I scored at 1/4" squares. Now I have my grid. Then I glue the base and put my strips down and I can just bend my grid over and cut the edges off straight. It doesn't take long to create the grid and it made it so much easier. I even did a 1 inch grid on my other quilt base. I don't burnish the score and I just score lightly so my base won't be too flimsy and since I will mount it on a base, you won't see it on the back.

[@sharonyoung8251]

The 6x6 also has small scaled designs and that helps.

[@barbtherkelsen5420]

Thank you soooo much for doing a log cabin block!!! I am so excited to try this 💖

[@deborahwarsko1667]

I love your quilt cards! I was hoping you would make more. Thank you

[@jeanetteelliott9527]

I love the quilt patterns!

[@raeleenrobinson5749]

May may , if you damp/ spritz your paper first then roll it with the pin , it works better. But a machine is sooooooo much easier

[@carolcaiazzo9180]

pretty cool! I'm going to try with my Christmas paper! Thanks for this info.

[@DonnaJo3452]

I love this idea for quilt Christmas cards!

[@reginarihani1234]

I love these cards so much!

[@robinmentzer7974]

I am loving the quilt cards. I want to do them and make them as pockets for a junk journal. Keep them coming if you have anymore ideas.

[@todayicelebrateme]

I take 12x12 white and do this. Then die cut words and shapes. But then through my embosser. You should see the results.

[@sandielmer5804]

Oh my. This is going to be a great Christmas card for my quilting buddies. Thank you for sharing.

[@anitahayne8621]

I found this video, clicked on it, and I recognized the accent and the shirt: Roll Tide! I graduated from the University and grew up in Birmingham, Alabama. For the last 25 years I have been living in Northern Virginia.

[@brendaelainewaddell1682]

Hi Maymay, I just recently subscribed and this video showed up in my feed. I absolutely love, love,love this and can hardly wait to try It. Thanks so much. 😊🇨🇦

[@kimscrafttime9184]

Quilted Folio😮

[@jerrielegare633]

“Like shoulder pads.” 😂😂😂

[@DonnaJo3452]

Do I remember those! I loved them! And I miss them!

[@sharonbrownyard2579]

Another amazing card! Thank you so much ❤

[@gloriaarboleda109]

Love the quilt cards keep making them

[@Sjohnston1928]

Love these cards❤️

[@juliebreithaupt3387]

I love the color choices and your finished cards are beautiful!!!

[@donnaroberts9124]

I caught a glimpse of a quilt square and adapted it to 4x4 card. 4 squares each 1 inch, in corners. Half inch strips of 2 complimentary patterns 4 inches long and 2 xhalf inch of the same patterns.

[@paulineburns8446]

I love this card so much I went out & bought an Uber cheap 6x6 pad …waiting for glue to dry on current project then quilt cards for Easter here I come😀🦘🐨🇦🇺…BTW hand patchwork/quilting & Machine patchwork/quilting is like card making with a Cricut & cardmaking with a manual die cutting machine….just different animals in the same creative zoo 😀🦘🐨🇦🇺❤️

[@franmckay5873]

I have wanted to make these for a long time so I’m loving these card ideas. So when are y’all going to make some sentiments to go with these quilt cards?

[@alicebair1811]

I love this card! It’s beautiful and so easy! Thanks!

[@rlpittard]

That’s not my favorite quilt card but you did a great job on it! I like the odd shaped ones

[@angelaadams9806]

Most of my scrap strips ( I have bunches) are less than half an inch. I will have to have a Skinny strip log cabin. I am sometimes opposite on the paper packs. Sometimes I don't like what they have matched together. That shows how different we all are on how we craft ❤ There are some I like though, so it might be a matter of just liking some packs more than others. I don't know.

[@jessicam1761]

I absolutely love this. I must get an embossing folder as soon as possible. Thanks for bringing this back. I had no clue about these type of cards. Edit: Oh & boy scoring to get the quilting effect?! Duh!

[@melanietannertaylor0401]

Watching this on replay & I'm Love,Love,Loving it !! Of course I'm a Quilter !!

[@tonie1106]

Thank all of you for sharing this video I’ve been working with paper crafting for a little while but I really want to get more involved because it reminds me of abstract art and my theory to this is; it does not matter what or how it look it’s creation.

[@zanmurray1]

Abt 10 years ago, I made some templates in Word for some 3x3 and 2.5x2.5 inch quilt blocks. Whenever I want to make a square, I just print off a page and start piecing.

[@maryh6190]

ALRIGHTY NOW! You have me so confused. I have a quilt sitting near my sewing machine to sew. Possibly my last one as my sewing interests have waned. Now I have seen the quilt cards video. I make a lot of cards also. I can't get them out of my head! I've even dreamed about the quilt cards. I feel like I'm cheating on both crafts. Do you have a support group to help me to decide? All joking aside I do enjoy your videos. Keep on doing what you love. It has helped me learn so much!💖

[@lauramartin7300]

Doing paper quilting will help If you have troubles putting prints together,as I DO in material. I got to start doing this soon. Can do x's on where seams to look like stitching 🤷‍♀️😁

[@sharonlarge7908]

I love this idea! Thanks so much for sharing!!

[@pineapplepapercrafts]

I go onto pinterest and look at quilting patterns for cards actually. It's one of my favorite things to search lol

[@livingweirdestherc6644]

I’ve just started learning to sew. These cards are so cute.

[@gailottow5325]

If you start at 1 inch square then each strip is .5 inch longer. Very easy to cut in trimmer

[@cherryanddaleedwards8227]

I would love to see some of your quilts!

[@cooper200633]

I always love the show , I just wait until the end 😅

[@sugaraunt]

Typically, a Log Cabin quilt had a red square in the middle signifying the home's hearth, the center of the home.

[@DonnaJo3452]

I thought the center was typically red but I didn’t remember what the red center meant! Thanks for reminding me!

[@yolandaperrine3667]

LOVE THE QUILT CARDS!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU MAYMAY

[@123npw]

I love this! Could I do this pattern on 4 X 5.25 in stead of square?

[@Shari_A._]

Probably not the same size, but now you have something you can do with all those branding strips you save out of paper packs and don't get to use.

[@DonnaJo3452]

Tiny quilt cards!

[@carfriday827]

I love this! Thank you.

[@leslieheilman7712]

All you need for a log cabin I a set of lights & a set of darks & mediums. You cn you use both prints & solids, lol in one block.

[@lynnkaufman9006]

you can put a 4x4 card in a bigger envelope...just put a scrap piece of paper in so it doesn't bend, then it won't cost you more

[@mamakarate8]

I like this idea for my scrapbook as well

[@wendywilson1736]

I like using my hexie dies and punch to make paper quilts, too.

[@kidjayjay2772]

I am going to love making these! 😍 ty 😊

[@jodycahoon8458]

Love it! I can do this.

[@raeleenrobinson5749]

If only “long arm quilting was that quick!” Lol

[@lauristandley4359]

Love it! ❤

[@skabettispaghetti5451]

Bwahahahaha! You put a card in an embossing folder and drove over it with a car!

[@sonialynnstation9905]

I am loving this!

[@kristinluvsdogs]

Just found you and I love this idea.

[@karenboyd6293]

I can assure you that I will not go to Alabama this winter. I am in PA

[@bdmeans62]

I'm new to quilting and totally love this! I did notice that the first one I made cracked a little after embossing, should I spray water on it before I emboss it or will that ruin it?

[@tamthaluehrs]

Hi some people spritz a lil bit of water and you can also make sure the sandwich for your machine is correct, it could be the type of paper you are using too, thanks

[@DonnaJo3452]

I would also try adding another piece of 65 lb. card stock in the embossing folder. That’s prevented, I think, mine from cracking sometimes.

[@todayicelebrateme]

You don't need a gemini. Purchase a small hand turning sizzix. Or simular. Price point around $40 -$60

[@jenaeUS777]

I love the quilt cards! I killed a 6x6 paper pad making card quilt fronts last weekend! One question I have: Do y’all think it looks more like a quilt to have the embossed side up or the debossed side up?

[@tamthaluehrs]

It's personal preference, I've done it both ways

[@pattym6076]

Wish I knew where to buy the beautiful papers used in this video. Can anyone share a link please?

[@Wanda6308]

Wow... I love it. I know what I am going to be making. oh I am a new subscriber :)

[@JustaGTO]

Loved this video! Thanks!! Marsha

[@cherylsperrey3445]

I can’t sew...but I think I could make this quilt 😊 sew cute! See what I did there? You can make a square card and put it in a larger envelope, like a 5x7 and not have to pay extra postage.

[@donnaward6158]

Y'all are hilarious!
