Scrappy Swap
About a year ago, I received a mailer from McCall's Quilting to subscribe to their magazine. Inside was a free pattern sheet for a quilt and it was called Scrappity Do Dah. I liked the block and it's super easy to do. It kind of wastes a little fabric but I like the scrappy look without doing lots of cutting and sewing like a string quilt. We are having a swap over on the Backporch (my Yahoo group) and the blocks are due October 1st so I'm trying to get mine done and move on to other projects. Here is a picture of four sets (of 12) I did a few nights ago. I already finished two more sets so I just have four more to go.I did this sample layout on my EQ7 quilting program just to give the ladies who are swapping an idea of what the quilt might look like. And today I received an email newsletter from a local quilt shop with this book for sale, Vintage Journey by Jo Morton. It looks like a similar block but those look like signature blocks. Pretty cute!
Gotta get those blocks done because my friend is planning a sewing day on Saturday. Looks like I'll be hauling everything AND the kitchen sink to go play. Now to toss the names of all my UFO's into a hat and see what I'm taking to work on!!!!! lol
