You ladies should have seen me trying to match up fabrics for this. Even after I had all the blocks done, it took me a long time before I got the layout like I wanted. I wanted to alternate dark blocks and light blocks. I think it worked pretty good. The good thing is this is almost all out of either fat quarters or scraps. The sad thing is this was all out of fat quarters or scraps.
LOL Didn't even touch my main stash.
I can look at this top and see so many fabrics that were used in different projects. So it will be like a trip down memory lane when it is on our bed.
I am mostly a matchy matchy type girl, so scrap quilts are sometimes a struggle for me, but I will say, I love the way this turned out. As far as matching up the corners/seams, I have learned lots of tricks over the years.
It just kind of comes with experience. This was really an easy quilt to do. Just cut 2.5 inch squares and sew together.
Thank you all for you kind comments. I am so glad to have this board to post pictures of my projects and see others projects. I would have missed this.
Blessings,
Winona
Actually I want to modify what I said about cutting squares and sewing together. You can do it that way, but if I remember right, I sewed a light/dark strip together, then subcut into 2.5 inches.
