Patchwork Sampler

Make quilts. Use fabric. Have fun.

piecing, scrap quilt · March 25, 2013

Design Wall Monday-Scrappy Stars

My drawer of 2-1/2” strips is overflowing and I came across a pattern named Breezy Batiks on Moda’s website that uses lots and lots of 2-1/2” squares (pattern is here).  I’m using all scraps for this quilt and making it bigger than the pattern—probably twin size so I can donate it to the emergency shelter. The blocks are easy to make but fairly time consuming since there are a lot of little pieces.  This is my favorite kind of quilt though, with hundreds of different fabrics.  It’s a walk down memory lane with every square I pick up!

Be sure to check out what everyone else is working on at Patchwork Times.

    I love the look and the fact that you are using leftovers. I love seeing the scraps from other quilts in a new one.

    What a great design! I like the way the stars are framed — more interesting than just a variable star.

    This looks great so far! Isn’t it fun how different a block of squares can look, depending on how you arrange the colors?

    Great scrap buster. I like the block with all the squares especially well. I keep forgetting to look at Moda Bakeshop, will need to take a peek one of these days. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Your scrap quilt is right up my alley too. I have a drawer of 2.5″ squares, but it’s not overflowing yet. Thanks for the link to this pattern. Yours is looking great!!
