The Scrap Quilt

The scrap quilt took about 10 years to make. Not that it was that difficult; it just spent a lot of time idle. The pattern came from a block-of-the month calendar (1996, I believe) and I thought "what a great way to whittle down my stash of fabric!" The plan was to make a block a month, but soon other projects got in the way. Years later, I finally completed it but I didn't like it. Back in the closet it went! One day, I got the idea to put sequins on it and that's exactly what it needed to go from ho-hum to wow!


The crow block was the first block I made.



July's block.

Cat and sewing notions.


A few more squares!

My favorite square.
