Paper Chain Finish


It's a finish!
Paper Chains
60 x 78

Most of the pieces came from a bag of 2 inch squares I received last year as well as some of my own squares.   At around the same time I received the squares someone posted a link to the Paper Chains pattern at Wedding Dress Blue blog.   So I guess I was meant to make Paper Chains.

I finished the top in May 2022.

And now I've finished the quilt -- quilted on my DSM with spirals. 

The binding is scrappy and all of it came out of my leftover bindings bin.


The backing is a gentlly used sheet that came from the thrift store. 

And now it is ready for donation. 

I think I will keep this block in mind for a baby quilt and use some of the pastel, mostly pink, 2 inch squares. 

And sew on...

  3. Great quilt! I love your version. My tub of 2" squares is reaching capacity, which means it is nearly time for me to make another one, too.

  6. What a scrap buster this quilt is. I'm making one as I write this and I can say that I will definitely make more than one with this pattern. It's a fun and fast pattern. Congrats on the finish! ;^)

  9. Love, love all those scrappy print squares. Still reminds me of gum wrapper chains I made so happily as a kid. The scrappy binding is delicious!
