When I finish a quilt I cut any scraps into strips of standard width and store them in little drawers by size. So when I came across this pattern from an old issue of Modern Quilts Unlimited, I was ready to go.
These blocks finish 20″ square, so this was quick to make despite the multiple little trapezoids in the centers. In fact it was so much fun (and I have so many scraps) that I may make it again.
Meanwhile it’s going to the friend who quilts our donations for Flying Horse Farms. Here’s a picture of the last load of quilts she delivered from our group–I love the stack of colors!
Any fun scrap quilts at your house?



I have so many fun scraps and am thankfully someone who loves piecing scrap quilts!! Thank you for the fun inspiration that I find in your blog posts!!!
Thanks for visiting and commenting. It’s always good to hear from another scrap lover!
So did you sew all those wee bits together first, then border them? It’s vibrant and cheerful and will be loved by whoever gets this quilt!
Yes, all those wee bits together in strips of various widths, then cut them into wedges…I liked it 😀
Looks like a fun one to sew! A relief from those circle log cabins, eh?
Indeed!
