Default Log Cabin Quilt

Kate:
I really like the off kilter LC Blocks. Cut the dark strips about 1.5" and
cut the light strips wider ... maybe 2.25". Center square should be about 2"
or so. They would finish to 1", 1.75, and 1.5"; set together, the narrow
strips form an illusion of a curve. This is very cool. To determine the
proportions YOU prefer, play with this on paper.
Scrappy LC are lovely, though I do prefer continuity of the center square.

I've never made this quilt and need some help.

I want to make a queen log cabin and don't know what size block to
make. I got a fella in mind that just built a log cabin and want to
give it to him.

any suggestions on block size and colors.

Any of you gentlemen quilters have any suggestions for me.
