Yes, I did post a log cabin block back in March, but I couldn’t resist posting another on Log Cabin Day. Besides, this technically isn’t a log cabin block. It’s four log cabin blocks. On June 25, 1986 Virginia Handy of Michigan founded the Log Cabin Society. Her goal was to preserve existing log cabins and to promote awareness and education about the lifestyle they represent. A few hundred years ago, life in a log cabin was a very back-to-basics experience. An open fireplace provided heat and cooked meals. You could cool and ventilate the one-room or two-room space by opening doors and windows. Plumbing was a nearby stream and an outhouse in back. It’s a simpler way of life, but it’s not for me. I’m far too fond of modern conveniences like indoor plumbing and electrical lighting.
