Here's a new pattern from Myra of Busy Hands Quilts! You can find this Scrappy Patches Quilt pattern at Craftsy or Etsy. The good news is that you get 2 patterns with this one. One for a scrappy version (see the next picture) and one like the bright colored one with all the blocks the same (later in this post).
48 x 60
So first up is the scrappy version. I made mine from 2.5 inch strips that I have been keeping in my scrap bins. I've been wanting to make a more masculine quilt for a while now so I pulled out some blue, green and warm brown colors. Love that I can use up scraps for this quilt! And since the strips were already cut, it went really fast. You could also use a jelly roll and it would be just as scrappy.
I used leftover pieces on the back from the blocks to give it some interest. Looks like a road!

I used the leftovers on the back of this one too. I just took out all the blue squares since I was using that for my main piece. Had to do a little seam ripping to get there, but i just love it.
Myra has this Scrappy Patches Pattern for an introductory price through October 15th! Have a great weekend everyone!
These are gorgeous. I can't decide which one I like best. Love the backs too.
ReplyDeleteI saw your quilts on her blog. I really like the one in earth tones, but I love the bright backing.
ReplyDeleteSo cool. Very neat. It is a welcome change of pace while still using scraps/stash fabric!!!
