Logging in WI. Way back when, before WI was even named Wisconsin, it was a desirable place to come.. There was an abundance of hardwood, old growth timber here and ample rivers to float it. Millions of trees fell, and were floated down stream to lumber mills. They turned trees into lumber to build homes for the wealthy and stores to supply goods. Of course not every one who came into WI from the East could afford houses built of "lumber", and many log cabins were built as quickly as possible, since winter is never far away in our northern climate. As quilters we think of something else when someone says "log cabin". This log city was featured in a 1988 issue of QNM. I'd like to make one similar someday. Has anyone done this one and would show it to us? I think you would have to do it row by row, and what size logs??? I only have the picture and the magazine's name and date....no clue how big it is in this picture.
