‘Log Cabin in the Woods’ by Zeeda Magnuson

July Challenge - Log cabin in the woods – Zeeda Magnuson

When I saw that the July challenge block was a log cabin, my train of thought was…..using the Cherrywood green to make a “sod” log cabin which made me think of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Little House on the Prairie, and the Sunbonnet Sue pattern. 

So, this is my interpretation of the above mentioned elements.  I used all shades of green for the log cabin home, keeping the roof the same fabric as the ground cover. I wanted to use Sunbonnet Sue because she is a pattern that is tied to Minnesota.  And, I wanted her companion, Overall Bill to join her.  I also added the pine trees even though they were not prevalent in the prairie, but I thought that Bill and Sue may have added them as a nice wind break for their log cabin sod home.
