This little cutie is 32"x 43". The back is one piece of fabric, the same as the binding. I LOVE the backing fabric. I found it at Joann's. I thought it was really cute in the store and once I made it the backing, I fell in love with it. I think it would make a lovely lining for a tote bag (we'll see).
I also added a little bit of embroidery on each corner for some extra cuteness. Well, I hope your day is full of some scrappy fun too. -Little Mama Hen.

ReplyDeleteI just might have to go back and get some more of that fabric that I used for backing. :)
DeleteI've been quilting 10 years now, and scrappy quilts are still my favorite. Have you read Roberta Horton's Scrap Quilts: The Art of Making Do? It is the book that started it all for me, and I still flip through it for inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read that book. I will see if I can find it on ebay or amazon. Thanks, I'm always looking for some inspiration!
DeleteBeautiful finish, April! I love scrappy quilts best of all, too. :)
