quilted knits (knitted quilts) ?

A long time ago, arond the beginning of the year I had a swap partner who was into quilting. She inspired me to try my hand at knitting a Log Cabin patterned square, and it was fun, but didn't go anywhere. Now, for the last few days I have been stumped as to what to do for my next 10 inch square for another afghan square swap I am in. So, I decided to do a crazy quilt type of square. We shall see how it goes. I am using purple, pink, mauve, and maybe one more color to finish it off. Then I will go back and use black yarn to embroider stitches just like the "real deal." I may be on to something. Anyhow, here's a pic of the log cabin square, front and back. pretty damn tidy if I do say so myself. oh yeah, click them for a close-up view)

I got the pattern here: knitting-and.com I just looked and it's cool, she has a crazy quilt one too.

off to knit,

Angela! Definately try Noro... it makes great stripes and all of the color combos are wonderful!

that Log Cabin square looks great... I think an entire afghan like that would look fantastic!
