Classic log cabin blocks date back to the civil war and are still used widely today. It is said that a black center indicated a safehouse on the underground railroad.

Log cabin blocks are a great way to use up those jelly roll strips you have laying around. (Are you like me and just have to buy them, but don't really have a plan yet to use them?) Strips of fabric are sewn around a square center block. 

Make your own log cabin quilt using one of these patterns.
