My Left Over Blocks quilt is finished!
I'm so glad that I pulled those left over blocks from my stash and decided to turn them into a quilt. It really was a quick little project and I'm delighted that it turned out so well.
I've also managed to use up all of the Vintage Modern and Ruby ranges that were in my stash. The finished size of the quilt is 31" x 31".
For a while now, I've been thinking about starting a 'gift cupboard' in my studio so that I'm always prepared ahead of time for Christmas and birthdays. The idea is that I will make things throughout the year instead of rushing around at the last minute or not having the time to make something.
This little quilt will be the first 'gift' that will be put away in my cupboard. In fact, I've already decided who to give it to.
Sweet Pea Doll Quilt....
This month's little quilt from Kathleen Tracy is a little quilt called Sweet Pea. The colours used by Kathleen are pink, blue, cream and tan.
It uses predominantly 1.5" squares so my ample supply of 2.5" squares came in very handy. I had almost enough 2.5" squares that I cut down into 1.5" squares and only had to add some tan squares.
I'm going to use the blue fabric in the front corner and the cream fabric behind it for the half-square triangle blocks.
The finished size of the quilt is 18" square.
I'm excited to see how it turns out.
Until next time
Lyn
It's great having things put away for gifts, I am sure whoever receives this will be very happy. Loving the fabric choices for the next little quilt
