I love the variation in strip width. An interesting effect came out of using so much white - the log cabin block effect was almost entirely lost and you have a "less controlled" feel to the piecing.

Thank you Mamadoc! I know... I tried to keep the cream and cream-on-cream fabrics in such a way that I could still see the log cabin effect, which I know seems to be lost. I do like the random result; it was really fun to make, and the best part is that you can build it up from tiny pieces of fabric, and you get that "less controlled feeling" you mention. :)
