The string quilt I've been working on for the last couple years is finally finished!
I love scrappy quilts and this one was so much fun to make with my left over strips and bindings.
So much fabric history from my scraps. I can remember almost all the quilts made with these fabrics!
If I make another, I will use a larger white strip for the diagonals - this one used a 1" wide cut and I think even 1/4" wider would make a big difference. A different choice like black or teal blue would be a nice touch too.
And the for the backing - I was going to purchase a backing, but then I thought to go to my fabric stash and pick something from there. So these are 3 pieces left from other quilt backings and I pieced them together to make something wide enough. Pretty happy with the result!
Quilted by the amazing Marie of Blueberry Hill quilts in High River, Alberta.
What's your fav scrappy quilt pattern?
