Yes I still have blue and mauve scraps lingering in my stash. These are leftovers from the days I used to make bunnies, country dolls etc. Little by little I am trying to use those fabrics up. Making donation quilts is a good way to do that.

Blue and Mauve scraps

Criss Cross
Criss Cross three yard quilt is a free pattern from Wood Valley Designs. This has actually been done for a month but I just haven't been able to get decent photos. The colors just are not true to what they really are. In real life the ones that appear yellow are a yellow green, the pink is really brighter, the blue is teal and bit darker than in the photos. The background is the only one true in color!

Scrappy Brick Finish
The scrappy brick flimsy is now a full fledged quilt! A quick all over larger stipple on the longarm made this move along fast. A tan Signature thread called Mother Goose was used. I finished it off with a burgundy print binding.
The backing was a pre printed panel that I cut apart and added the larger strips of tan muslin in two vertical rows and one horizontal row in the middle to make it big enough.

The panel was given to me a few years ago, I am glad to finally have put it to good use. I was pleased to see I was able to come very close to centering the top on the backing. This is donation quilt #four for 2025

It's not a UFO anymore!

Strippy UFO finish and a birthday
Another UFO has crossed the finish line. This one is a spin off of something I saw on Pinterest.

Scrappy D4P
My scrappy green disappearing four patch (also known as D4P) has crossed the finished line and is ready for donation. I posted about the beginning of this quilt here. Since I started it this year and we are only into June(how did we get here so quickly!) I will say it was a WIP not a UFO;)

Braided table runner
Another UFO worked on and finished! This was a fun project that started a long time ago, we are talking years and I have no idea exactly, but more than four I am sure. One and a half inch strips and the little braid template from Kate Colleran was used for this project.

UFO moved to a flimsy
I am feeling the satisfaction of bringing a UFO to the flimsy stage. It all began by cutting bricks from scraps last November. Such satisfaction, don't you agree?
For the neutral squares I did end up using a bit of yardage. And soon I had two strips pieced. Shortly after that I put it aside...
Until a few days ago when I wanted it off my design wall. I had a little conversation with myself that I should just sew up more strips first. I only needed three more strips and I could end up with a UFO crossing the flimsy finish line. But wait that would be a smaller top than I wanted. So into the stash for some solid blue for sashing strips and a little outer border. Ahhh satisfaction! Quilting will ensue at a later date as I am just in a piecing mood right now.

Sweetness
A few of you were wondering what I was going to applique on this table runner.
Well you don't have to wait long as I finished it up yesterday!

Tulips
My tulips are up and blooming-well they are in this runner not in my flower bed! The tulip block is from Center Street Quilts and is a freebie. While I have made this block before this is a new runner I pieced over the winter, in fact I pieced two identical runners but only quilted this one for now.
