It's a finish!
Unchained Melody
55 x 70
I made the top last year (and several others) when I was working on emptying out a box of 3 inch width strips and squares.
616 three inch squares in cream,tan,taupe,beige,brown.
I arranged the squares by value.
I used waste triangles to make chains in all colors of the rainbow.
There are some fun things that can be found in an itty bitty triangle.
I quilted with vertical lines each side of the seams in variegated threads. The binding is scrappy browns.
And sew on...
Oh, fun, a clown!

ReplyDeleteI feel like I could sit and look at this quilt for hours! I’ve been keeping the scrap triangles from my bindings and from scraps given to me. I have a small basket of them. This is a great way to use them!

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful scrap buster! This takes such patience. I am sure you still have plenty of scraps even after this gorgeous finish!
