Cabin in the Woods

I've got the first block of Cabin in the Woods appliqued and blocks 2 & 3 glued down as seen here. We've been  contemplating this block of the month for awhile now, but could never figure out exactly how to stitch the blocks together, but after talking to the designer, Jan Patek, at Market, I feel confident that I can explain it to you all so that you will also understand and won't hesitate to get started! My instructions for putting the quilt together will be included with the last block.  I just love this quilt!  It's classic Brannock and Patek and a joy to work on!
