Another
scrap quilt this week! I had fun choosing bright colored prints to
combine with light gray pin dots for this standard vintage block. I didn't have to cut much after
searching through my boxes of 2½” and 4½” triangles.
The
8” blocks sewed up quickly, then I framed with 4" borders. I quilted with white thread in a
straight stitch, following the block seams. For the borders, I
switched to a zig-zag utility stitch and quilted two parallel lines.
Blockbuster finished out at 48” square.
After this was finished, I straightened up the sewing room, then had a marathon cutting
session because there are plenty more remnants to dispatch. I like having my most used sizes cut and ready to go. It helps me finish projects faster! Look for more scrappy fun in later blog posts.
It's
Halloween week, so we'll be watching our favorite scary movies with
popcorn and trail mix for snacks. And there could be an adult beverage or
two. Trick or treat, y'all
