It's a top!
Quirky
49 x 63
I'm trying to empty a box of 4 inch width scraps that I have accumulated over the years from others. I usually have a couple of Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) projects going for each width of scraps but sometimes I just have so many odd lengths of different colors so I decide to just see how many comfort quilts I can make to empty the box.
For this quilt I used the blue, pink and purple pieces in the box.
I made 7.5 inch unfinished Four Patch, Two Rail and Rail and Two Squares blocks...
...and I added in some saturated purple 7.5 inch unfinished squares.
Then I randomly sewed blocks together.
*** Edited to add...this morning when I went into the sewing room I found another row for this quilt under some other tops I had webbed together. So when I get that row added to this top it will be 49 x 70. Sheesh!
And sew on...
***********
The box of 4 inch width scraps I've been working from is a large flat rate USPS box.
So far I've made the following tops/block sets with scraps in that box:
1. Yankee Puzzle Top
2. Yankee Puzzle #2 block set of 48 blocks
3. Blue/Orange Four Patch Top (also added orange solid)
4. Basket Weave (also added orange solid)
5. Four Patch and Two Rails (brown, orange, yellow)
8. This top
I still have pieces in my box of 4 inch width scrap so guess I need to make some blocks and/or another top!
