More plain weave – this time with colour effects. Log cabin is a great plain weave pattern where you alternate dark and light threads. In Season 3 Episode 3<\/a>, Jane Stafford shows how to design a log cabin with extra border threads that make it pop out and look almost 3-D. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Take a look at these two samples – can you tell the difference?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the sample on the left, the log cabin blocks are bordered in white, while on the right they’re bordered in black. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All up I made 13 samples in 8\/4 cotton, all different. I changed out the border colours and the frame colours and tried some different patterns in the weft. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Red frame, white borders:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Red frame then white, white, black:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue frame and blue borders:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The possibilities are endless. This was a fun project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
