Blocks from 2013 |
I pulled out my drawers of 1.5", 2" and 2.5" blue strips and began cutting and piecing more blocks. I ended up with a total of 20 blocks which each finish at 10". They have all been joined together into this little quilt top.
Baby Blue Boxes, 40.5" x 50.5" |
On a separate note, I shared photos of all three of my Scrappy Trips tops in this post a few days ago. This is the third top, which was made from my leftover blocks after making one top in warm colors and the second from all cool colors.
I am linking up with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge on Saturday and at Oh Scrap! over at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday. Be sure to check out all of the wonderful projects that everyone is sharing!

The blue quilt is great and sure looks like a scrap eater! (Exactly what we want, right?) I might have to keep that one in mind... The scrappy trips is gorgeous!

ReplyDeletethese quilts are fabulous. Bravo on pulling out the marinating blue blocks and getting them ready to be wrapped around a baby. Love what quilters do.
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYou are right! Every once in awhile a girl needs an easy quickie! Those are unusual blocks but they make for a nice quilt. Looks like a good one for H2H.
ReplyDeleteLove how the Baby Blue Boxes turned out; it IS satisfying to have a simple project from time to time! Great to see more Scrappy Trip blocks - I definitely have them on the brain this week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet blue top. Great use of your scraps!
ReplyDeleteBoth of these are wonderful projects. I really like the blue boxes - it makes a superb quilt. Your scrappy trips does have purple in it.
ReplyDeleteI need more simple patterns for my own donation quilt making. Did you use a published pattern for that adorable box quilt? Great job on that Scrappy Trips top made of warm and cool leftovers. You even managed to use some PURPLE!!
ReplyDeleteThose boxes look like fun to play with! What a nice hug that quilt will be!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that bright Scrappy Trips! All three of those quilts are beautiful!
Your soft blue quilt top is amazing. It makes me want to start pulling scraps! Thanks(?) For sharing with Oh Scrap! Hope you get to your purple scraps soon.
ReplyDeleteOh I am glad you kept working on blue - that top turned out great
ReplyDeleteGreat blues for that top!
ReplyDeleteYou've done really well at using up orphan blocks and finishing off UFOs the last few years. Congrats on getting the last 2017 trippy blocks into a quilt. Both scrappy projects turned out beautifully.
