Starting today, TQS will be featuring quilts from the exhibit Log Cabin Today! Presented by Brigitte Morgenroth, a series of log cabin quilts created by Brigitte Morgenroth that were featured at the Houston International Quilt Festival in 2015. The exhibit is described as:

"Twenty-five years ago, Brigitte Morgenroth discovered quilting when she lived in Bophuthatswana (a former homeland in South Africa) and Libya. She creates modern and interesting Log Cabin quilts, with her choice of expressive colors and material, combined in different variations and arrangements: Log Cabin with a twist, triangular, undulating, or pineapple. Silk and polyester satin are her favorite materials, sometimes combined with patterned cotton. Mainly, she sews large quilts and sometimes smaller, more sophisticated ones. All of her quilts are hand-quilted. She gives this old pattern a modern, interesting character."

Please enjoy Brigitte's first quilt from the exhibition.

Title of Quilt: Opernball

Quilter's Name: Brigitte Morgenroth

This is extraordinary. I can see the blocks in the up close photos and they are mind blowing. Beautiful quilt.

Log Cabin designs are my very most favorite. She has taken it to amazing heights.

From a tiny square, a long cabin grows???? Over the top - ingenious.

Wow, this is an amazing quilt. You really have to look hard to find the actual log cabin blocks.

What a beautiful quilt. I definately didn't expect this when thinking about a log cabin quilt. Brigitte certainly thinks outside the box!
