I have gotten behind on binding quilts, but finally here is one that was a lot of fun to make.
The pattern is “Diagonal Scrap Quilt” by Maryline Collioud-Robert, available here. The author lives in Switzerland, but her patterns are available in PDF format through Etsy.
Making this quilt was quite an adventure! Here’s a picture of one 7.5″ finished block.
The process was fun, and was a good thing to do at a retreat last fall because it was repetitive and I could talk and listen at the same time. Plus, who would know if I made a mistake!
I did send this to a professional longarmer because of all those seams, but it is the correct size for Flying Horse Farms, and will go there or to another children’s’ charity.

This one is a definite scrap stash buster! I spy the singular ‘fiddlestick’ in each block and like the purple border fabric.
It was a fun one, and I have plenty of scraps left over!
The last time you linked me over to Maryline’s ETSY shop, I came out with several downloadable pattern purchases. (Thank you for that introduction.) Your scrap quilt is terrific and I love all the movement in all those bits and pieces, yet cohesive. Fun to see fabrics we have in common!
Yes, isn’t it amazing to see your own fabrics in someone else’s quilt, with all the thousands of designs out there!
What a lively design! It’s great!
I’ve made some of her other patterns and liked them as well. I’m not sure how she thinks them up, though!
That’s a great scrap buster!
