Between The Lines

I cut lots more scraps last month, especially small ones. I just can't bear to toss away pretty fabric! I can't resist the challenge to make something from nearly nothing. 


This sweet baby quilt makes me glad that I kept those trimmings from other projects.


These colorful blocks are made from a traditional vintage pattern called Indian Hatchets. I cut them using the stem section of the Accuquilt Maple Leaf die. The four patch blocks measure 5
½” finished.  I love these skinny little lines!


Between The Lines


I quilted with white thread between the diagonal lines using a serpentine stitch. Backing and binding is an aqua and white mini floral print. Final size for Between The Lines is 45” x 50".  


Accuquilt dies used:

55195 Maple Leaf 8” finished
55017 Strip 2½”


Wishing y'all a happy Thanksgiving!
