Charming Plus Quilt

54 x 66
This is my Charming Plus quilt for the Charming Plus Quilt-A-Long that was hosted by Tisha from Quilty Therapy. I chose to use up my scraps from my 2.5" and 5" scrap bins. I had so much fun going through my scraps and picking out the fabrics.


As it turns out, I was able to use some of my weirder scraps because they blend in so well.  I have a piece that says "I love you", a few Christmas scraps, and a piece that is mostly red (you might be able to find it in the photo above).


I added some fun to the back by using 5" squares to make bigger blocks.  I just didn't have enough bright colors to make any more than this and I ran out of black, white, and gray prints too. This quilt really goes through the scraps!


I went with a grayish looking back and black binding to try to make my quilt more adult looking.  It's a bright and happy quilt that should make someone smile! Thanks to Tisha for hosting this fun quilt a long!
