I don't know about you but I still have quilt fabric from the 80-90's lurking about. Yes I kinda hate admitting that but on the other hand with fabric getting so expensive I really love having a large stash to shop in!! When I am making scrappy quilts for donation these work great.
Using the #2 and #8 Accuquilt dies from the 12" cube made quick work of cutting the blue and neutral scraps for the bricks.
I started this quilt in September at retreat and finished piecing the top here at home later on. The quilting, which I kept simple, was done recently.
I had yardage in these blues also so that became a pieced back and navy binding. The plan is to give this quilt along with six others to my DIL who will give to her church group that goes to the Twin Cities to serve those in need. I hope someone will love cuddling up in it this winter.
I really like that bricks design - perfect for scraps! It could work in any colors. Nice finish, Vicki!
ReplyDeleteI still have some fabric that is over 20 years old but I have used most of that up over the years but I still have a lot stuffed in cubes - more than one would think can fit in those.
