Scrappy Quilt Along Update
I have been doing a scrappy quilt along with Sew Lux Fabric and Gifts blog and here I am with a finished quilt! This QAL is supposed to last for a while so if you want to jump in and join there's plenty of time. This block is easy and lots of fun. I had been saving strings for quilt a while and used plenty of them in this project. This is a quilt that will reside in my lake camp on one of the bunk beds.
I chose to add some borders on this quilt because I wanted to stabilize the very bias edges and I think I accomplished that. I need to make another quilt for the other bunk bed but may not get to it before summer. If I am going to make another one like this I will need to start collecting strings but I think I am inclined to make something completely different.
By the way, as I mentioned on my last post I was taking the test to get a boating license a week ago and I am happy to report I passed. In fact I got 97%! My husband got 95%. I am very happy but I really wanted 100%. I am an overachiever. I am glad I beat my husband's score though.
Sorry for the not great pictures. I can't seem to find my camera cord and have been using my phone. Have a wonderful Easter weekend.

Congrats on the finish and… the photos are mostly fine but there seems to be a certain special cat missing. That's the only thing I can say. I mean… ya know. ♡ *karendianne.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on the boating license. I hear you on overacheiving, I tend to do that too. Love your scappy quilt, it's beautiful, but with all the triangles, it looks hard - was it?? Hugs and have a happy Easter. Will be thinking of you and sending you good vibes this month for your tests, etc!!

ReplyDeleteLove your quilt! Those white center strips give it a lattice look. I have a new fabric bundle that would be great sewn into string blocks. Thanks for the inspiration.
