Scrappy Brightness

There were still a lot of Kaffe Fasset scraps in my bins everywhere so last summer I got them sorted into a couple of baskets and came across a photo of this quilt on the internet.  I had lots of 1 1/2" strips leftover from another project so I pieced them together and cut into 1 1/2" segments and sewed them as leaders/enders into rows.  At the end of the rows (left side), 2 1/2" squares are added and every second row more are added until 10 rows are complete and you start adding 4 1/2" squares.  It was a great way to use up lots of scraps, but I still have lots left!  I can easily start another quilt ☺! This turned out to be a riot of colour and really makes me happy!  It was beautifully quilted by my friend, Chris Bogart.

  1. Great scrappy quilt! Scraps tend to breed in the sewing room…there are always more!
