Scraps Away

This was started on dark and stormy night about a year ago. An assortment of 2.5" squares.  I tried to keep it bright and cheerful,  not many browns, or greys. An assortment of freehand motifs in the light squares.  It measures 60 x 80 inches.



 There was fabric vomit on the back of one of the neutral squares. Something I discovered late...after the binding was on. Also, by then, the long arm had another quilt on it. I did a little domestic sewing maching finishing.

 Happy Quilting,
Gudrun

Happy Sunday

I am enjoying working with single shape scrap quilts.
This one was completed at the end of 2016
 I call this one Four Squared.
 It has 4 inch squares, 4 inch borders measures 92 x10

Triangle Delight as the name suggests is triangles, two sewn together makes a 2.5 in. square.  Not completely random, neutral plus colour to create pinwheel.

Triangle Delight  78 x 92




Details of quilting Triangle Delight.
I will be returning this one to the long arm for some additional quilting. There
are several spots that look too puffy. Come back for a look.

Another Finish

Actually two recent finishes. Both these quilts were inspired by Sharyn Craig.  If you haven't heard of her, you really need to check her out.  She often posses the question "What If?" If you are into using up scraps, she's a wonderful resource.  I am presently working on one of my own, using her methods.
I am hoping to get at least to the flimsy stage by the end of the month.

Both quilts are lightly quilted, with an 'open' pantograph.
Happy Monday,
